Sam Cimini Should I try to rent now or wait?
6 April 2020 | 19 replies
I don't think you really have an "either/or" problem; you have a opportunity to get exactly what you want:  a good tenant (based on your standards) at the rent amount you require to meet your financial objectives. 
Luke Carl AirBnb no longer sticking to April 14.
28 March 2020 | 52 replies
This is somewhat similar to a fast for restaurant; if Mcdonalds didn't enforce minimum standards of cleanliness and operations, a few badly run franchises would end up lowering sales volume across the chain.The issue seems to be when STR operators feel that AirBnB has unjustly taken the side of the renter when the operator has perceived that he has done everything correctly and the renter is just taking advantage of a situation, such as he really wants to cancel a reservation past the cancellation period and so uses an excuse to get a refund.  
Account Closed Landlords... Stop being so hard on your tenants
1 April 2020 | 125 replies
you guys have to realize you should work with tenants,because if this last along time like 2008 ,you will realize what i mean.sure everyone should be able pay their rent with their stimulas checks.sure you might have to workout payment plans to they get them.but after that it might get rough ,if the goverment does not get people back to work.what choice to you have,a tenant you know,or a complete stranger without a job.alot of you where not around in 2000 and 2008.this market could get real bad.like now if you advertise a place you get a good responce to look at it.in 2008 you would advertise and hardly anybody would respond and if they did they wanted 1 or 2 months free rent.i would prefer to work with tenants now,and i can already  know which tenants its going to be.it will be the 10% of tenants you always have to remind to pay.90% of your tenants will find a way to pay.we  all know they signed a contract to pay,just be nice if they work with you,maybe stop late fees or reduce them.but to forgive the rent is another story,unless the goverment forgives our taxes.you got to realize now you should be in survival mold,for i can tell you if you make it threw their should be sunshine at the other end.because most new building is coming to a halt,most remodeling coming to halt ,most family being home more ,which maybe creates larger family,and when this done most banks will have even more tougher standards for a loan ,like 6 months reserve for a borrower.so down the road rents will rise probably more then before this crisis.so just hang in their and develop a plan you your situation.so look as this as a bump in the road.and if you live in wisconsin ,you should know by the amount of potholes we have

For my area this is considered a standard to good deal.As far as 2% rule I have never seen any that are in areas I wanted to invest in, but in other states that may be different.So, IMO I would be interested in getting into assets that cash flow better (or that cash flow at all).
