Welcome to the site @Malachi SparlingHave you defined what type of properties you're after?

Keep in mind we do not have known cost amounts for these repair items, and can just make estimates, and hope no other costly issues are uncovered after attacking some of the repairs.My question is, with our next interaction with the selling agent, should we:A) Ask for the major repairs be metB) Ask for a decrease in agreed upon price (without great idea of what the repairs will cost)C) A combination of both; settle with some repairs met, and a decrease in priceOur entire list is below: (keep in mind that I am not sure if all of these things need direct attention to get the unit rent-able, or if some items can be overlooked for now and deal with later as they become more of a problem)Repair List:Items that need attention before renting unit:Big Ticket Items:Install furnaceInstall all new appliancesInstall water heaterExterior electric power supply is damaged, needs repairInstall guttersNo termite treatmentNo gas meter, install newAttic decking has moisture damage, needs repairSmaller Repair Items:Install electric panel faceplate and secure exposed wiresTwo prong outlets (could not test), swap out, install GFCI where neededTrim tree limbs in contact with power linesMissing light cover under front entranceRepair kitchen windowsRepair kitchen sink leakRepair utility room leakInsulate atticSeal gaps in living room doorLoose bathroom faucetAdjust shower water pressurePatchwork performed in multiple rooms, walls are plaster on wood lathe- which I have been told can have asbestos issues once opened upDeferred Cost Items:Large tree removalTorn and missing roof shinglesSeal plumbing boots on roofRaised soffit under car portSecure electrical lines in attic, they run over attic stringers, not through them (necessary?)

Trying to find a good site to use .

BetseyWe have listed our properties on Google Business .Since doing that, we are running about 50/50 of people coming directly to our web site and going through HomeAway ,VRBO or Trip Advisor or Flip KeyOur Season is almost 85% word of mouth. which really helps cut down booking fees.We have seen and been told that during season once guest find a place they book for the following year because if they don't they won't be able to get in.We have been doing this going on 3 seasons now, when we bought the place we inherited a couple of guest that have been staying on the property.

I am looking to perform some due diligence in property management research and looking for recommendations of managers in that area.

Their site looks nice and pretty transparent, although the FAQ about pre-payment penalty is a bit vague.

Company handling the daily operation y'all do not have to be on site everyday.Good luck to you both!

I am having trouble searching for distressed properties in the area as the conventional sites like Zillow or Realtor.com have limited amounts of listings.
