Hello All,What app/Managment software have you found success with for taking applications and managing tenants?

I think you are making a mistake in switching over to Section 8 if you are successful with what you have/had now.

Here’s how to build trust with private lenders:Share success stories or past deals to demonstrate your track record.

I have seen a lot more success from my friends getting cashflow in that area. 

For instance:If your area has many corporate offices or conference centers, you're likely to attract business travelers.Family-friendly suburbs with parks and schools often attract families.Downtown locations near nightlife are popular for groups and parties.Review Competitor ListingsSearch for successful Airbnb listings in your area and study their target audience based on:The language in their descriptions.Their reviews (guests often reveal the purpose of their stay).The amenities they offer (e.g., desks and Wi-Fi for professionals, cribs and baby gates for families).Evaluate Your Own SpaceYour property’s layout, amenities, and location may naturally cater to a specific audience.A cozy 1-bedroom apartment downtown might be ideal for professionals or couples.A 3-bedroom house with a yard might appeal more to families.Proximity to nightlife might cater to party groups.Experiment and AdjustIf you're unsure, start broad and monitor who books your property.

Most importantly, I'm sure you would agree, this has been a huge learning experience that will allow you to be a more successful & savvy investor in the future based on this experience. 

Second, your family is absolutely beautiful; and congratulations on your success! 

Planning for flexibility with frequent moves and understanding property management will set you up for success when you start investing in 2026.Good luck!
