I was contacted by two different people, one through email and another who called me.

Now interest rates staying flat hasn't helped too much, but we are in the higher season of people moving/finishing school/etc. 6-8 months ago was a bit slower. 

I am sorry most people didn't answer your question on what to charge for services to STR owners.

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

Start by learning a lot, meeting people, looking over deals, and choosing a keen spot.

And, in the meantime, I will get the lists of people I THINK could be motivated to sell, skiptrace them and call them.

These tools include the strategic use of domestic charging order protection (COP) entities in select jurisdictions as well as the revolutionary Bridge Trust ®.

@David Rutledge I don't doubt it, but it's a town of about 20,000 people, and aside from this thing a number of miles away called the Pro Football Hall of Fame, there really isn't anything that spectacular to draw tourism in the area... it must all be corporate and maybe kids returning to visit their elderly parents? 

I can't tell you how many people forget they scheduled a tour.

And people are definitely starting to catch on.
