I've been an STR host for 2 years for my 2 STRs,  I want to do this for 2 or 3 more years and build up as many cabin clusters (starting with the 10 I'll own this spring) and maybe additional SFH, as much of a direct booking presence as possible and as much goodwill in the OTA listings, then either sell it all to someone or hire someone to operate the entirety.

From my experience, here are a few property management companies that my clients have worked with:ERA Solutions: They have a strong presence in C-class neighborhoods.Realize Property Management: Better suited for A and B-class neighborhoods, though they do manage some C-class properties.Ohio Elite Management: Primarily focuses on B and C-class neighborhoods.

I have yet to successfully close on a property that I've filed a notice on but i cements your presence.

While there is good reason for the frustration caused by the delay in this project, last night, proof was provided that the project is moving forward in form of the presence of a successful and powerful local company joining the project.

There is no fooling the eye when the work is simply not done.Rommel had began to bark at them and was getting territorial, although I should mention that Romy is only about six months old at this point, literally he is a puppy.

John - Would love to hear more about your NC project as we have a good presence out there as well (1-Mars Hill, 1-Burnsville, 4-Hendersonville). 

While some agents have legitimate pocket listings (like selling between friends or family members), without a presence on major platforms, it's difficult to verify legitimacy.

@John Clark I think the viable path to a presence element is huge.

Your presence is welcome but not necessary. 

The bottom line is, the strategy can open doors you didn’t even know existed.. it’s not just a tax hack, it’s a wealth-building strategy that rewards a little patience and a lot of foresight.If you’re floating around Chicago, Omaha, or even dipping your toe in the Phoenix or San Antonio scenes, I’d love to help you navigate this territory.
