It's a pain.

I self manage my portfolio while having a demanding full time job so that's always my pain point. 

"Get rich FAST using this one simple trick" Imagine trying to sell a course: "Build wealth very slowly, it will be painful most of the time, you will have to give up your weekends sometimes, you'll miss out on time with friends and family during this process" I was in this position last year when I had a first time investor buyer reach out and told me the offer he wanted to put in.

Nothing in Tampa, although I did consider investing there in recent years.One pain point is going to be doing a remote closing if you want to do that.For Florida you will need wet signed papers for part of the transaction (title transfer), so you'll need to get a US notarization from the embassy, and then physically mail stuff to the US (overnight air mail).

I deal with development opportunities where I can and synergies between local businesses.Then I have my operations manager who handles most of the day-to-day management of the properties, and they manage some of our contractors and managers.Our model is a little different than large parks because we have regional managers that cover multiple communities vs a single one.The pain point right now is mainly having consistently qualified contractors and filling vacant spaces as quickly as we can.

A painful learning experience, to say the least. 

well i lived through it.. painful as it was.Gap lending is far to risky for almost anyone end of story.. totally agree.the only time it works is with some decent cross collateral and or you have a substantial relationship with the client and have done LOTS of deals with them for many years. 

Not to mention the paperwork pain involved with each claim Any thoughts on just not having any insurance at all, or just some sort of liability and really high deductible ?

We worked out a buyout from it but it was painful.

It is also kinda a pain in the butt to setup where they can send codes with the August Yale locksAnyone  have experience sending automated codes with the Encode on AIrbnb?
