I as well as many other managers in my network charge around 20-25% at max.When it comes to AirDNA I have been able to cross check a listed property from the owner to the revenue on they have listed on AirDNA and it matched their last 12 months.

Agree with the previous poster, don't try to DIY asset protection and legal entity structuring across international borders...Reach out to an Irish professional familiar with Irish legal entity types and client types such as yours (i.e. foreigners investing in Irish AirBnBs).Then, interview and retain an Irish tax professional and a US tax professional. 

Just completed a cross-country relocation to Atlanta, GA, after moving out to Portland, OR a little over a year ago from NYC (whew!).

I'm in Fresno, California and if any one knows CA it is tenant friendly so I just want to make sure I'm crossing "T" and dotting "I's"Last question, the central valley is heavy with immigrants.

The owners already accepted an offer and financing fell through so I’m up to bat but I want this to be my game and I’m just at a cross roads with a non-aggressive agent and me who just wants to get a killer deal.
