I went through the setup process meticulously like 5 times, and it says everything is fine, support thinks everything is fine, but I don't get any booking.com messages in Hospitable, nor do the automated messages get sent out.It seems like quite the hack/workaround they have set up with booking.com so I'm wondering if it really works reliably at all.

They seem to be a middleman for underwriting some type of debt instrument for DTCC. 

@Bryan La If you sign up as a biggerpockets pro member you get free use of rentredi which is property management software where you can automate your tenant screening, you can run a background a credit check super easily through there and also use it to collect rent, generate a profit and loss statement, and more.
