Were you listed first with your SS#?

Not a red flag, usually this means the owner didn't have the property for very long, or are just lazy.I would try to squeeze the agent to ask if the seller can provide a list of improvements made on the property over their ownership if any.

There is ONE takeaway from my post.STOP feeding each other or propagating the idea that you need to cold call, bandit sign, DMM, SMS, or use lists, to get deals. 

more properties, vacations, groceries, other investments, whatever. 

I really don't know how much the bids are going for nor is the listing agent legally bound to let me know the honest offers received so far.Any help would be appreciated!

What are good places to list apartments for mid-term rentals?

I have it listed on 5 websites (free) with tracking numbers (that sometimes ring through to my phone).

I can send you a list of CPAs here in Columbus, Ohio.

Run-of-the-mill homes aren't going to do as well, but if you're bringing the amenities, buying a home with some style, furnishing well, photographing it with a professional and writing a slick listing, then your vacation rental should hit 55% out of the game and be aiming for 70% by year two or three.

I'll definitely add you to my team list, we just made an offer on a Kihei condo and will keep in touch for sure!
