Research this carefully, set your goals beforehand.For instance, I needed to cover a debt service from my relinquished property, I wanted a DST with an experienced sponsor with a good reputation, and I wanted a 6% return.The return I was demanding eliminated much of what was out there.It was VERY easy to eliminate the many DST brokers out there.  

Not only to take control and eliminate the eyesore but to raise all of our property values. 

@Peter MorganDSTs and QOZs eliminate the hectic time constraints and the need to be local.

This can provide more flexible terms and potentially eliminate the need for a traditional mortgage.Private Money Lenders:Private individuals or companies may offer loans for real estate investment.

We’ve automated the process and eliminated the back and forth negotiation by sending a simple renewal letter 60-90 days before the renewal term.

That advantage can translate into quicker growth or plugging holes during recessions by isolating and eliminating low performers or paying off higher grade individuals.

Most of these eliminate the absolute “newbie” who has been taught to run around making “offers” on FSBOs based on “guesstimates” of repairs and then try to “sell” the contract to a fix n flip buyer and if not successful utilize a “weasel” clause to disengage from the contract unscathed.  

All are necessary, honestly we did our direct book site to piggy back off VRBO, air and a local site we use. 90% of it is repeat bookings that like to communicate with us through that direct book site vs some protected site like air.we send out a mass email to all our guests using hostfully email capture and offer 5% off the lowest direct booking price which still nets us more than we get for the same booking through the platforms.we do all of it, direct, local and the platforms, we continue to have good success and our clients/guests love it.as far as the price for the website development- to be honest we had a great year one year and needed a write off so that was a factor as well. bottom line is people find you in so many ways, we don't want to eliminate any of them.

Based on your comments or fears about tenants one of the options that you should eliminate is renting then self managing.
