Best of luck! 

What is their current default rate if any?

If you wanted to refi, going the DSCR route might be the best option.2. 

I'm eager to share the knowledge, learn from others, and connect with some of the best in the business. 

A good property manager should be able to negotiate with contractors and shouldn't just accept whatever rate is handed to them.

I would love any and all feedback on the topics and frequency of these messages. 1 Week from check-in:- Thank you again, welcome- Ask about reason for visit- Directions- Attractions in the area- Any specifics about checking in our finding their property (apartment type single family structure can get confusing for first timer which suite)- Parking Instructions- Ask for any questions we can answer ahead of time- Provide contact number if need direct contact1-2 Days Out:- X number of day reminder, excited they are joining- Ask for follow up questions- Video instructions on how to find their suite/apartment (link to video player)- Check In instructions- Wifi instructions- Parking Instruction reminder- Google Map and Apple Map links for their phone GPS- Contact number reminder for their stayEvening of Check-In- Ensure they're settling in- Confirm we want them to have a 5* experience- Contact number reminderMorning of Check-Out- Thank them for staying- Ask for feedback on how to improve amenities onsite- Check-Out Time- Check-Out Instruction2 Days after Check-Out- Thank You for staying- Ask for rating on booking platform- Offer Loyalty discount for return stay- Ask for Referral

So starting with an agent probably won't work.Your best bet is to start networking, going to meetups, etc.  

Best regards!

We've have about a 20% response rate and our delivery rate sits around 95%.

My cashflow (right now) is neutral (I plan to refinance down when rates drop), and my initial plan was for appreciation to grow my net worth.
