Seems like it has been too good for too long (low inventory, overseas money flowing in CA/NY/SEA/MIA/ATL and tech money, zero fed rates) but some bad signs are coming (all the major economies are slowing down, baby-boomers tightening their wallets and spending more on healthcare than discretionary, HELOC from 2005 are resetting, wide income gap, Millenniums cant' buy entry level houses, Houses sitting longer in some hot markets due to seller high expectations etc.). 

More to fix, more things to be done .either on my free time or my wallet.

@Marcus Homes Free vacation seems gimmicky and will not be an incentive for a large portion of the motivated sellers you want to attract—remember that most of these people have money problems.

I would be attracted, especially if I were moving and the move is 5k to bring my old crap from Ohio.

Mark is correct- the quality of tenant that you attract will be determined by the property address.  

I don't find airbnbs auto-pricing to be accurate at all and it frequently quotes rates for me more than half of what I know I'm able to fetch for my place.I would say this is probably because I would imagine it would be hard to code a system that takes into account quality of amenities, true location, size, and unique features.What both systems likely do is just dig through all the listings of homes that are around the same bedroom and bathroom size and then give you a price based on the average of those homes, but that leaves so many important factors out of the equation such as the quality of the house, the true location of the house to tourist attractions in the area, quality of amenities, unique amenities and the houses reputation through reviews.I think the tried and true way to accurately price your home is to simply dig through the listings and find houses that truly reflect and in accuray to your own house, see how much they're booking for through the listings calendar and then price your home similarly to theirs.

It doesn't mean that you should stop looking/buying, but it does mean that you should be focused on deals where you can negotiate very attractive entry prices and generate a bulk of your return from cash-flow (appreciation for near-term will be minimal).Don't be caught swimming naked!

You'll have to look at your market to see what type of properties quality tenants look for, and what you can do differently to attract them.

This is because, for example, if an area tends to attract middle-class families, it may be more difficult to rent out a 1 bedroom condo.Square Footage: My view on the size of the property is similar to the one expressed above - I like "average" houses that are not too large and not too small to appeal to the largest possible group of prospective tenants.Layout: Get a floor plan from the turnkey company, if they have it, or look at the photos to get an idea for the layout of the house yourself.

The two also attract different types of tenants.
