BP, please consider updating and improving your tools.

But before exchanging I am "improving it".

There is a youtube video for everything you can imagine.

Minor interior improvements, professional photos and better advertising for short term rentals.

I am having the locks replaced with ones that have an audible alarm if someone tries to force them, and I am improving the lighting on the property. 

Tenant acknowledges that Landlord’s adoption of this smoke-free policy and the efforts to designate the Premises as smoke-free do not in any way imply the Premises are any safer, more habitable, or improved in terms of air quality standards than any other rental Premises.

I have read short term rental long term wealth and watched a ton of content on you tube and it seems that STR's will help me reach my cash flow goals faster then the LTR model I am currently using.  

I like realist.Deal machine has a lot of youtube videos so you might can check features and functions there.Not sure about the two you mentioned.

If approached correctly (hand picking those with the greatest potential for STR cash flow improvement + best current as-is cash flow), Sedona SFH's between $1M - $2M are yielding gross monthly income at approx. 1%-1.5% of purchase price + renovation, especially after reasonable improvements (Some are completely turn-key but have higher cost, some need $50k - $200k).And I agree with another post that in most areas, this is not attainable anymore.

I would first watch some YouTube tutorials on the product and connect with other investors who use the service readily.
