New blood in the forum is always exciting.. what's your top strategy for finding hidden deals?

Suggest you check in with him/her on this additional service as your attorney is already intimately familiar with the file and you can often give them pre-authorized amounts to settle on vs trying to squeeze all the blood from that turnip.

I do have folks that don't book because of that.That is a good thing as not understanding the distance to get places will create bad blood and cause those 2 and 3 star reviews which no one wants to see.Like @John Underwood, our place isn't cheap so we don't get the folks that destroy places.The bottom line is that you are renting out an expensive asset to strangers for 3-10 days or whatever.

Kind of the mentality of the war torn countries like Angola/DR Congo - where leadership thinks "get them conflicts going and get them blood diamonds making us rich".
