-Focused on long-stay corporate guests to minimize wear and tear.Scaling isn’t about buying more — it’s about systemizing what already works.Anyone else here growing through arbitrage or partnerships?

Because they will get defensive if they feel you are pressuring them.

They can’t review the “hot” deal their broker just sent them because they’re too busy categorizing emails in color coded category’; they can’t attend the on line networking session because they need to switch over to a more detailed CRM system; they can’t visit the property going up for auction because their scheduled weekly garage cleaning is running overtime…..The Student – This person never feels they have enough knowledge, experience or education to properly evaluate an investment.

That means managing the bookings, guest communication, and most decisions yourself rather than turning it over to a full service manager.

It also helps that I inform my guests that a starter supply of paper and plastic items are provided and ask them to replace any items they have used up. ( This may not be popular with others but I have never had a complaint and for the most part,  items used are replaced)

-Furnish smart — everything a guest needs for 30+ days, nothing they don’t.

I do feel more comfortable taking a 5th look at the data lol and think that it is certainly possible to profit well. 

Unless you are a family with a number of kids, bedroom count is not that important - the 3rd room is often just a guest room.

Worst case get a double security deposit, a higher rent/guest/occupany fee, and make the SSN holder the sole applicant and the other adult as a guest.  

With the single fee, if you set your price at $115, you earn $97.18 and your guests pay $115.
