If you need some more help choosing a lender to interview, feel free to fill out our lender match form here and we'll take a look at which lenders may be able to help.

I interviewed, landed the position and by the end of my second day I was single-handedly managing 15 STRs, coordinating cleanings, repairs, responding to emergencies etc.

I would try the agent finder tool on bigger pockets and interview agents first, as if they invest in STR's themselves in the market you want to be in then they should already have great recommendations for you to use for lenders, cleaners etc.

Take the information that you find and call them to do a brief interview on why they are good at STR's (I always like using agents who have their own STR, they are available to connect you with the right people to get it going ASAP). 

My cousin shared his experience over the weekend renting out his house where he had two good tenants and one "bad" one, which made me nervous about doing it alone and being out of state.I plan to interview three property managers and see what their quotes and services are like.

Regardless of how you find them, try to interview at least three managers.1.

Interview some investor realtors and when you find the right one, that person can connect you to the other resource partners. 

Did you interview multiple PMs before you landed on this one?

I have been interviewed by the FBI on one such outfit and they got prision time.But those are bad people and well we assume your seller is a nice person..

You will want to interview several PM's to see what they offer, some are more full service than others, some will nickel and dime you, but all will help get you the exposure you need and get you up and running.Homes here come fully furnished (99%) and most will/can transfer the existing reservations.
