Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

We focus on staying true to what is a good deal for us and not deviating from that.

Difficult to manage, consistent late, professional tenants, longer vacancies and evictions are all too common.

I found this very interesting article about Airbnb in Tucson that I thought it would be of interest to investors who are having intention to start their Airbnb business:Original Article Courtesy of Carol Ann Alaimo of tucson.comShort-term vacation rentals a multimillion-dollar industry in TucsonBusiness is booming in the land of sunshine and saguaros for those who rent to tourists through a popular online booking platform.Tucson property owners collectively took in more than $8 million from Airbnb rentals last year and demand continues to soar in the run-up to the city’s annual gem show.About 53,000 visitors stayed at local Airbnb properties in 2017, a 73 percent increase from the year prior when about 30,500 did so, said Laura Rillos, a spokeswoman for the San Francisco-based company.Total rental income for participating Tucson property owners jumped from $5.1 million in 2016 to $8.4 million last year, Rillos said.The short-term rental trend has been good for the local economy because it serves those who otherwise might not come, said Dan Gibson, a spokesman for Visit Tucson, the city’s tourism bureau.That’s especially true during peak periods when local hotels tend to sell out, such as during the gem show or homecoming weekend at the University of Arizona, he said.

@Philip OlivierYour tax profile is a little bit more complicated and such I think you should hire a professional(I am a little biased).Since you make $100,000 from your full-time job - you should be eligible to deduct the losses(if you have them) from your rental property so long as you don't have significant income from other sources including the short term rentals.
