Which in turn will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the market.

They are in the business of Airbnb leverage.

I understand that I would need to find an operator willing to do business with me; I'm simply asking if it makes sense, and if it would be a scalable option to start my first handful of units. 

It did take a while forget enough properties for it to make sense and to WANT  to have a separate tax return for the real estate business, but the structure sure gives a lot of flexibility and protection.

Hi everyone,So here is the deal.Started a PM company 10+ years ago as a subsidiary of our turnkey company (IMO it's a tough gig selling turnkey if you don't also manage in-house)Hated the PM business for a good 5 years or so.Then one day I woke up and smelt the roses and realized that PM is not so bad after all.That of-course came at a time when things actually started to work and we actually started to "work" the systems just as they should be worked lolWe have reached a point now where it's a pretty well oiled machine other than the minor $#@% that we fix on a daily basis.The business motto is systemize, optimize and monetize which is a work in progress but chugging along.I'm confident that with the operation as it is today we are at a point where we can start to significantly scale.Organic leads are flowing in nicely and we grow at between 10-15 units per month or so.My questions are:1) How do we potentially find other "mom and pop" shops what want out of the business and we purchase to take over?

Luckily my husband has his own contracting business so he does all the labor for free but that’s not the point!

Each city has is own ordinances from code and violations enforcement to yes Airbnb (short-term rental or not).Then you need the best management company is the blood of you business.

If you are in business only hire the best. 

I run a kitchen design and supply business.

Regardless, you need to implement insurance and proper management procedures, regardless of how many assets and equity you have.
