There is an old saying. ( Use money and love people) and not the other way around.

I think this is a way to try to lock people into using only Airbnb

Looking for some new action and help ( if anyone has some experience and is interested in learning the rental game)My interests:Finding someone local to potentially set up short term rentals and managing themFinding someone local to manage maintenance on 100 property rental portfolio in Stark CountyFinding someone local with experience in the wholesale game to identify and lock down deals Finding someone local to work as a property management assistant Finding new deals (rentals, flips, re-sales)Finding people to drink cocktails with and talk real estate and sports Identifying buyers interested in purchasing rental properties in Canton Ohio that are rehabbed , city inspected and up to code with renters. $100k per property , $750 avg monthly rent ( ability to raise up to $1000) 

I always suggest people take small steps when getting into the investing game!  

People think that's even different for investors...the fact is, it isn't.

Often times when people put manufactured home on lots they sell the manufactured home itself but keep the land and rent the land to the home owner. 

I’ve seen many people get creative offering many projects like car washes, propane, u haul rentals, food, etc.

Even in a mediocre market, if you have a great agent and a great PM, you will outperform a great market with a mediocre PM and agent.That's also why I think it makes no sense to invest in 17 different markets: you don't know much about any of them, you have to build a network of people in every market, the law is different in every State and it's physically/economically impossible to visit any. (1-4 units anyway, large commercial is different). 

They generally don't want people to feel taken advantage of dealing with someone who has training without realizing it. 3.

I just started in that market (nothing bought yet but actively seeking my first one now) A few of the people I will mention have already posted here but I will mention them and I believe they can be of great help to you.
