I agree with @Jonathan Greene that it may not be worth the hassle if this is the only time you're going to do a direct booking, but I would recommend trying to get more direct bookings. 

Here are two strategic recommendations:1) Learned about Stepped up Basis.

Anyone have recommendations for a contractor they have had a positive experience with in the Indianapolis area?

The numbers are good so we just want to make it happen, our attorney is not a fan of the creative financing structure and flat-out stated she would never recommend anyone buy any property subject-to.

Is this why you recommended it?

I also do recommend a charcoal grill. 

I'd recommend reaching out to Texas Tree Transformations.

In our area of Seattle it's typically provided by the landlord and wanted to learn from the BP community what you'd recommend I do as a new landlord in Texas getting our investment ready for applicants

I am referring to him solely because I have seen his posts offering the service (so not a first hand recommendation but suspect he provides what he advertises).Good luck

cash Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
