One strange thing occurred though, In my mind, Long termrenting would totally be what I got into, via Househacking a duplex or something of that nature, but when I started to get involved with property management of Short term rentals, my perspective changed dramatically.My entire plan of Long Term renting would go straight out the window and now I was only after STR properties.Here are some of the major reasons why I like STR much better than Long Term Renting:Guests PAY FIRST, before getting info about how to get to the place and how to get in they must pay first, so there is no worry about a tenant paying on time.Bad tenants are gone after the reservation, so it makes rowdy guest reservations quick and then they are goneTenants sometimes damage items whether it's long or short, but with STR, you are able to chargeback guests and get compensation for damaged or broken items at your place, so there isn't much worry there.The rental income is typically much more than Longer-term renting as I have seen, you can expect a 2-3x increasein cash flow for Short term rental properties compared to Long TermWhen you offload the work to a Property management company, there is nothing to worry about as an owner you are simply able to collect a check each month and that's it. - Mike Eichler What are your thoughts on these, are there any I missed?

So I understand firsthand the investments (time, money, emotions) that need to be made in lower income asset classes, only to be made to feel like a greedy monster when the time comes to be compensated for that investment.Again I think this goes way beyond individual investors/mobile home parks.

Agree, this is to be expected.If they left belongings, research the law in your area about storing them and try to get them to agree that you can dispose of the items.Stop trying to enforce the lease, you likely won't get any further compensation.
