If its general information, Bigger Pockets has a ton of info that you can learn at your own speed, just type "STR" or "Short Term Rental" in the search bar and a bunch of info will show up. 

Be prepared to show a lease, some utility bill, or credit card statement showing you live somewhere else.

Thanks Nathan - this helps a ton. 

But I agree with you these guys pass up a ton of listing opportunities and given the amount of money they spend thats just wasting marketing dollars in my mind.. the laws are changing on wholesale assignment business model.. like most things RE its always changing and evolving.

We are only very moderately leveraged, but I am in no rush to change that and rather use the cash flow to re-invest either into upgrades (we are doing a ton of driveways this year) or more RE.I don't think there is a right or wrong way, like you said there are many different ways, I just find myself adjusting every year a bit more in that direction.

If they were looking out for my best interest and knew that they tenant was moving out, they could have taken that opportunity to show me the unit.I had been told that Ready REI’s "contractors" had gone through the duplex including the occupied unit and deemed it move in ready, however the home had MANY issues, and the unit that the tenant moved out of was a complete dump that required a ton of work – much more work than Ready REI let on.
