How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

One easy way to start evaluating a market is looking on Furnished Finder, VRBO/Airbnb (30+ day stays), and Zillow to find other listings in your market and see how many, what they are charging, and generally what they look like.

@Susan ThelenNot on this site but you can google them and find many online.

It will spark conversations with people you didn't even think would have an interest in your services.You may be able to find a deal or 2 within your own sphere of influence.I see that you're a school principal so as long as it doesn't conflict with your position, I'd imagine that you have a lot of folks around you who trust you and your judgment.

My main goal is finding buyers as the deals come quite frequantly here in Florida.

#1 a PMC#2 an agent that knows rentals and will work together with the PMC#3 the best inspector you can find!

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.

Fall is also a hard time to find tenants .
