@Kevin Valenzuela There is more to it than just the method of contact.

In a market that has mainly buyers due to low rates what are some of the unique methods to attracting tenants?

You don't list where your STR is, but in general i'd start with and in no particular order the ENEMY method, local facebook groups, and or turnoverbnb. 

I'm not sure if it's because they are being overloaded, shared with friends, or what the case may be, but it's not uncommon in our market for renters to have their own and bring them along to their new home (a lot of people probably prefer this over sharing with others anyways).My theory is that the best method is just making everything as nice and modern within reason as you can afford to in order to attract the best possible tenants.  

My Goal is to Flip properties and move forward with rental properties with the Brrr method.

I mention at leaset three times that text is my preferred method of communication and that I want them to let me know about any issue right away.

I'd also suggest regardless of your path, you choose one before moving forward seriously or you'll get overwhelmed evaluating deals in different markets/methods and miss a great opportunity. 

@Ron Zinger use the enemy method :)

Look at cabins that are similar to your possible purchase and check their stats.That is the best way to estimate your nightly rate and occupancy.Check out this thread - https://www.biggerpockets.com/...Enemy Method...

Brendan sounds like you are being methodical and going about things the right way.
