We use Fresno Management Company.

As a side note, I know there can be some issues with a landlord "acting as a utility company".

The top sponsors for Real Estate meetups are lenders and title companies.

As for fees, your typical STR management company down here will be in the 15-20% range plus your regular costs to run a STR (consumables, towels, maintenance, etc.).

I have called around in my area and it seems like Property Management companies charge 10% of the gross Rent. 

I was wondering if there are any major differences in lending companies that work with home equity lines of credit (heloc)?

Hey Mark, Our property management company uses it and it has been a great tool to increase efficiency for showing properties.

How do you suppose a property management company would deal with any of this?

-Booking.com is a very large and established company that has been around much longer than airbnb and vrboCons:-more listings to make sure are all staying maintained assuming you are also on airbnb and vrbo-you have to pay them their commission back at the end of each month which is a pain in the a** and is an unnecessary extra step-payouts can take longer as you mentioned-it has been impossible for me to find anyway to contact customer service over the phone and instead you have to refer to their forums and FAQs for any answers you need.Hope you found this helpful.

Our last step is running a forensic audit of the company (S - Corp) and then we will write up the contract to purchase.
