Ask them who is doing the most moving and shaking and connect with those people. 

So, in my opinion, the time for this sort of due diligence would have been before you invested (rather than after).At this point if you visit and find a big problem, it's likely going to be like trying to close the barn doors after the cows have already all left.The one possible exception might be if it's a problem investment (which you didn't say it was)...and you are wanting to try to "shake up" management by visiting. 

I spent the first three or four years shaking my head because the numbers didn't make sense.

Thanks to my W2 career I am comfortable with being house rich, cash poor for now atleast so we will see how this all shakes out 10, 20 years from now.One thing that is true is that property management fees on STRs are an absolute profit killer, and honestly it hurts my soul, but I have to remind myself of the opportunity cost of time saved by doing this, which in-turn allows me to focus on other income generating projects.

She also added 1or 2 more BEFORE the crash.Then she was prepared to act when the crash happened.No one knows what will happen in the future, and it's unlikely something as opportunistic as the 2008-2010 crash happens any time soon, there will be other opportunities.One may be a shake out in the STR market, which may offer saavy investors some purchae opportunities.Bottom line: if you never get started, you'll never be ready for future opportunities.

Their shake-down with a $10 photograph can earn them hundreds of thousands. 

If you post the terms you're seeing or send them to me, we'd be happy to review them and make sure you're getting a fair shake!

Conclusion:The NAR settlement is poised to shake up the real estate industry, introducing more transparency, competition, and flexibility in commission structures.
