Hi Michelle, Is this property a rental, vacation home, or primary residence?

Hey Joe I own Vacation Rentals of Florida, a local STR PM Company.  

If not corrected our contract says they are to be given a 15 days to vacate the property.

If the bank went through an actual foreclosure sale, you would have had redemption rights unless you failed to vacate within ten days after a demand for possession.

I have a client who is actively looking in the area for a vacation destination and STR (fellow BP Member).

You could raise your rates by $1 a night if you don't want it to impact your cashflow.As for linens not on beds: imagine a family packing for a vacation and cramming everything in a car, dealing with screaming kids on the trip, dealing with nightmare traffic and finally getting to the place and unpack all the crap. 

(Max vacated rents - your monthly mortgage payment) = +/- net cashflow.On the other hand, you could also look into multifamily units where you can live one of the unit and rent out the other vacant units with as little as 5% down payment.

So far(knock on wood) I've only had to file for an eviction once, and the tenant vacated before the actual court date. 

Maybe an annual vacation on us?

Airbnb/VRBO do bring in about 60% of our bookings but that does leave another 40% to direct bookings and a combination of our other platforms (Marriott Homes and Villas, Booking.com, JetBlue and Allegiant Airlines, Google Vacation Rentals, and more).
