The leading 3rd party management platform "East Storage Solutions" provides services that make it easy to lease out vacant units.

I get dozens of inquiries which usually turns into about 10-15 solid leads that fill out my application.

Maybe my question should be, what type of investments will likely have a significant “short” term (under 15 years) depreciation and be eligible to accelerate via a cost segregation to help offset taxes.Also, any investment we are looking at is not solely for tax purposes.

We were of course never deceptive, and they were aware it would be a short-term rental.So now I am just praying the house doesn't burn down while my agent is trying to find another company. 

I am in the process on closing on a short sale.

Unbelievable how short-sighted you are, pinching pennies, but losing dollars.

Life is too short. 

In our case we decided that it was easy enough to pay the HOA directly for the amount owed and then do a short sale to take clear title.

That's more than likely correct-- they're short the capital.

I manage both long and short-term rentals, with a preference for the latter.
