My fav feature on Airbnb is the timed automated message function that you can set upon booking/checkout/or even during the stay...you choose when messages go out.

There is a free version designed for newer investors and it will give you a chance to check out some of the functionality. https://inveloapp.com/ Feel free to check it out and let me know if I can answer any questions! 

One of the main functions of the PM is to find a stable and qualified tenant for your property.

STRs require functional but eye-catching furnishings as well as sometimes unorthodox decorations just to stand out.

An FHA 203k or Conventional Homestyle loan can close on a properties without functioning utilities as long as fixing them is part of the repair bid.

We're lucky to have a pretty functional one for our county.You have to check with the municipality you're interested in, then check with the condo (if that's what you're doing) association. 

Remember, in design "form follows function." 

You can get better returns elsewhere  Use the lookup function  My name and look for a post   What happens if you die.  

I also have an addendum attached that describes examples of activities that may become necessary that are unforeseen at the time of making the lease which may require additional administrative functions that cause additional charges to be assessed that become a part of rents then due.

As you well know being in real estate, whether the numbers work is all a function of what you paid.
