I just wasn't sure how you'd exactly bypass Airbnb or VRBO platforms. 

The meters are read electronically with 3g and you get great reporting in their water scope platform.

You seem to know how many lenders we have "signed-up" on our platform.

Hey Daniel, you can use a platform like Avail that will give you all the info you need to know like:-Credit score- criminal record-eviction historyYou will also need to gather their:SSNIDPaystubs and 3 months bank statementsat least 2 past landlord references.If all the above check out, you likely have a great tenant.

However, we will likely need a property manager to assist with some facets of running this rental (since we would not live locally) and would primarily market it through platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO to start, (eventually setting up a direct booking process).Here's our question for those who have experience in STR's or who might be involved in a similar scenario: How challenging is it to meet the material participation hours needed to achieve active status?

For more bookings, consider promoting on social media or offering last-minute deals.Regarding ticket partnerships, local attractions or smaller groups might be more flexible than larger platforms like Xplorie.

I've tried a couple - truepeoplesearch, white-ages, property radar, leadsherpa, batch leads...Some services are better than others, but it is a numbers game and you also can cross check between different platforms.

Do we have trusted advisors, brokers or community bankers within this platform who would like to work on this?

.- Unfamiliarity of software with my Bookkeeping and Accounting team.Altough not ideal, you may want to pay and do bookkeeping on both platforms for 3 months to see if you 100% want to make the switch.I still use Quickbooks, but the desktop version, it runs perfectly for all my bookkeeping needs.

They are a platform that has no identity and doesn't really know what they are doing or who they are serving.
