Especially for those dealing occasionally out of the platforms (airbnb/vrbo). 

Also keep in mInd that their presence encourages others to keep pets as well.

Tons of wealth of information here and on the other BP platform’s like the podcast, I’m a junkie. 

This is a fantastic platform to start out on.

This will encourage prospective tenants to call you.B) Market your properties, even if you are at full vacancy.

I would encourage you to research a self-directed IRA custodian and be sure to do your due diligence before moving forward.By leveraging my funds from a former employer 401k plan, I was able to invest in three different syndicators across multiple markets which gave me the confidence to invest in many more opportunities over the past two years.

If you host on Airbnb you're probably already aware that they're launching 10 new updates to the platform for Hosts starting today.

Frankly, if you're not willing to fully flesh out the automation of STR tenants and tussle with AirBNB, VRBO, etc. policies (or worse, use those platforms as lead generation and have your own STR booking system), make your exit strategy to be a small local portfolio that won't expand for passive income or simply get an attractive portfolio enough to sell to a big corp like Sonder (who has bought small businesses before).

You can get almost everything through the commercial platforms and usually better search/save features.

Try Taskrabbit too, they verify their worker's info before letting them use the platform.
