I recently started managing a vacation rental.Been researching a lot about the different tools that would make my life easier (Dynamic pricing, automated messages, expenses tracking, ...) and found a few useful ones but having a hard time to decide.Curious to see what others are using and whether you would recommend it or not

FWIW the MLS is a marketing tool.

I just need to determine if this is a tool I can employ to help make that happen, or not.

These locks have a master and a tenant key that is easily rekeyable with a tool  but I don't give anyone the master unless the maintenance person is directly employed by me (or in the case of my HVAC guy) is a single man shop and he has worked with me for a very long time.

Question for anyone who lands on this post - are there any tools out there, similar to the ones provided by Bigger Pockets, that specifically support the REI market in Canada?

My siblings and I are all adults and only asked for 1 or 2 items each, I dibsed a meteorite and some tools.

What are some tools that are available when it comes to gauging the market of a city or an area?

Thanks for service, @Sean Snizek - you've earned the best tool in an investors belt, access to VA loan rates.

Mark Allen Like the contractors of J Scott or Aaron McGinnis and our company, we don't strive for work, we have plenty, we know our costs, we know our profits, if any client wants it more cheaper, they can hit the road and find the guy with a truck and tools who doesn't pay taxes and workers comp.

Include your fee, closing fees, etc in this in order to show full disclosure on how much they are paying compared to ARV.So find or develop a tool that will put that info together for you (I can help with that if you would like), find a contractor if possible who will get you an estimate on repairs (and learn from him so you can do estimates yourself), and go find those properties!
