starting a short term rental company

April Smalls
Posted

Hey You Guys,
I am seeking some guidance as I have recently established a Rental Arbitrage company. I have taken significant steps to ensure the credibility of my business, including crafting a comprehensive operations plan and presenting myself in a professional manner. Over the weekend, I have been actively touring various apartment complexes and reaching out to numerous potential partners via email.

However, I've encountered a setback; some of these apartment complexes have declined to work with me due to my lack of experience with prior Short-Term Rentals (STRs). I am now seeking advice on how to proceed and whether I might be approaching this venture incorrectly. Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Maybe open a PM company and hire people with experience.

Make sure you are licensed and ensured to manage other people's properties.
