They meet regularly and can be a great resource for learning and networking. https://www.northwestreia.com/events I have a great network of property managers for long term and short term, so if you are looking to interview some folks who can help with that, please send me a PM.

Also, there was regularly raw garbage or trash bags left sitting on the ground. 

There were ppl taking the course worth with me, but it was not interactive (which worked for me.)

Hi MTR community,We regularly work with local companies to find MTR tenants, but up until now the tenant has always signed the lease, received a per diem, and paid us directly.

When I click on paint, its the same prices as if I was a regular customer.

Once the renovation is complete then deciding on the strategy to cash flow your own property (regular rental, STR, MTR) will help you with understanding what's required to cash flow a property. 

Service the furnace, A/C and water heater regularly.

Love that you're educating yourself regularly through BP and books.

Any REGULAR monthly meetups you know of happening in Rochester, Buffalo, or Syracuse?

You can use RentSpree and the tenants pay $49 for the regular or $79 with criminal background check.
