I was going to run an STR in the home and he would enjoy a higher rent than from a regular LTR rental AND he would have the property managed too.All was going beautifully.

However, I would suggest you calculate a 5-10 year pro forma on each property and calculate an overall IRR for each so you can compare and contrast based on your risk tolerance.

Hi everyone - I am working with some investors & found that I am being faced with the problem / pressure of reducing my commission as they say they are going to buy / sell several properties with me & will not sign an exclusive agreement that puts a time / place & create a sense of loyalty.  

It's been nice to build different plans and seeing how/when the addition of more rental properties plays out in reaching my financial goals.Just wanted to share, thought others here might enjoy it too!

I have learned a good bit about the management of those properties since.

Happy to chat if you need some guidance into areas and property types. 

I need someone who is motivated to generate direct bookings, especially since my property is themed, and Airbnb doesn't do a great job of marketing the theme. 

Terms on these property types have fallen considerably in the pst 1-2 months where earlier in the summer interest rates would have been above 7%-8%. 

I had desisted of the idea of house hacking due to the fact that most small multifamily properties are  the most desirable areas(based on my experience).

The contract is for a property.
