Agree with @Dan Mackin - you'll almost certainly owe the superlien amount which is equal to 6 months worth of dues.You may or may not owe all or a portion of the rest of the amount based on date of filing, etc.Be prepared to find the HOA board completely unwilling to negotiate. 

The basic data points as I think of them:---What is your gross rental income per booking---What is your cost per welcome basket---What is the increase in chance of a repeat booking, based on the presence of the welcome basket---Secondarily, what is the change in likelihood of a great review, based on presence of welcome basket     If you have a high gross rental income per booking (say average $5k per booking), and you can offer an incredibly high impact welcome basket at a low cost (say the basket costs $20 but includes dates harvested from the date palm trees located on the property), you will likely find this yields huge returns in repeat bookings and reviews.    

Basically my bank will take the funds directly from my tenants bank account on the agreed upon date.

I've been searching online for real estate agents and property managers, and it is so hard to know whether someone is actually any good. 

So my first question is, from the online listings not everything is always there, so what information is key to ask for (for multifamily anything from a duplex to a 10 unit building)? 

There are quite many Accounting apps to choose from.For me, online database (keep track of expenses from anywhere with phone/laptop/assistants) and receipt scanning through phone are the 2 most important features.

I have been part of an LLC that has owned 2 adjacent properties that are currently in escrow with identical closing dates.

Essentially I start at the desired finish date and work backwards.

I'm starting to look into online advertising to see if the ROI is better there.
