I know how easy it is to get fubared by undercapitalized contractors all the corners they try to cut.. relationships are the key @Jessie Huffey as Jessie says you find a great contractor you bring him a bottle of wine or a six pack or a gift certificate for dinner.. what ever it takes to keep him or her on your team they are invaluable.

Simple explain who you are, when you took over (should not be done in advance, but the day of close after you close or later is fine), how to contact you, pay, submit work orders etc.Short, sweet and to the point.Best of luck! 

I loved the food, wine, and hiking in the Bay area. 

This property will be a buy-and-hold property, not a flip so we are looking for that sweet spot of quality and cost.Thanks!

I would say the sweet spot is going to be the $300-$400k range for STR with a gross range of $60-$75k.

Well, have STR in wine country Oregon. 

Cities want that sweet hotel tax cash.

She was very nice, sweet, and totally at the end of her rope with this building.

Courteous, short and sweet follow up letters work for me.  

Im from LA and started w/ Turnkey in Kansas City, Indy, and Little Rock, then created my own team and started during BRRRRs.I highly recommend speaking with @Alex Craig , he has a sweet operation going on in Memphis and Little Rock.
