She provided me incorrect information and my 6% locked rate ended up closing at 9.99%.

A good local agent should be able to help with some of those updates needed for the exit sale. 

Cleveland, Baltimore, Toledo, Indy etc....You will see net population decreases in most of these areas but these are the areas where the prices are the lowest in the USA and come with rents that are very high when compared to the sales price.

A purchase of $209k, $15k rehab, and ARV of $240k doesn't get you any thing back after you factor in all of the closing costs to purchase and to refinance.

Even that manager needs to be really hard worker and skilled in so many different areas...sales, marketing management, hiring, firing, reservations, computer skills, and more.   

For those of us that operate many properties or use a PMS where you are the merchant of sale for VRBO bookings and any direct booking I’m curious how everyone does it?

You won't find anything close to the Austin market with that budget. 

Purchase price: $20,000 Cash invested: $45,000 Sale price: $99,000 Contributors: Peter Vekselman Partner Driven and Amanda Frecks teamed up for an exciting flip on Main St, Grainfield, KS.

However, most tend to get very watered down with sales pitches etc.  

I'd like to purchase an STR (I probably should have said that), being that I live in South Florida, Orlando isn't too far, but also not close enough that I can drop by anytime, so I thought I'd need a PM, or perhaps just a great team in place as far as a mechanic and cleaner, realtor and lender.Thanks again!
