As many of you pointed out, having a reliable team is the most important thing.

It took us a couple of weeks but we slowly increased their rankings unit they were on page 1 (based on search parameters of course) and they got a 10 day booking soon thereafter.We use Price Labs to check out the date of the last booking.

Your tenants should have this responsibility.

Make sure you check the local ordinances / zoning and talk to the local administrator to see if you can do what you are planning.

Where are you living at this point?

Find out what the seller has invested in the property if you can.

I have rented out this home short term before and have been successful but I don't have any experience with 12 month leases.  

The idea that you could screw up so many multifamily investments but are a reliable source for investing in farmland is farcical.

I’d appreciate any guidance or tips to get started on the right path.

Any guidance or tips would be greatly appreciated!
