Angie: if you run in to people teaching and promoting dishonesty you CAN educate them...and tell them YOU won't operate that way.

@Lisa Alexander I dabbled with short term rentals last year and had bookings for 4 months in advance, however that may have been because I was offering a good promotion to build rent history on airbnb.

I'm not allowed to promote meetups here, but you can click thru to the BiggerPockets event listing, which will provide details if you're interested. https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

Is that the style of investing that you promote?

Trust me there are few here like that office colleague who has been telling you every year for the last 5 years that he is looking to leave but then also lobbying with the boss for his next promotion!!!!!!

Hi, AllSome follow ups: To promote responsible utility usage and maintain fairness, we're introducing caps on utility bills.

@Geoffrey Rickaby if you're going to be recommending PMCs, you should better understand how each operates to protect YOUR reputation.My manager wrote a blog series here on BP about interviewing PMCs, but if I share the link here the BP moderators will consider it self-promotion:(

So you build up the portfolio but only really make your money on the exit/acquisition/management fees & promote.

Personally I would not promote publically that you created an illegal duplex.

Cozy made a decision to keep things simple; tenant screening, rent collection and (very recently) to property promotion and it fits to their business model.
