I hope it will give me more motivation and knowledge than just rewatching all the YouTube videos.

Have ALL of your ors in the water, do/setup marketing in many channels (SMS, post card, PPC), learn how to carve out lists that target motivation that you want. 

Specific motivated leads (foreclosures, divorce, etc. are great), but I'd also go for absentee owner lists, or just mining tax records with set criteria.

You have to have a strategy to prevent these things...and I would think you don't always want to leave that to third party property management, that you want to do that yourself.Probably in most cases if you're just going a few times a year, and you're going in peak season, probably cheaper in the long run to rent hotel rooms or other STR vs buying one if that is your motivation.
