Later on, as you have acquired more, I would lean back a bit and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

I'd like to thank:@Tucker Cummings for starting a fruitful discussion.

I've been active here on BiggerPockets for 6 years and didn't upgrade to PRO until about two years ago.My advice: Don't pay for PRO until you've squeezed every bit of juice out of your existing membership!

I would rather put more effort to higher ADR/Occupancy and scaling to get more juice from the squeeze.

Socialism has no fruit w/o its latent social defects.  

Yes it is easier but it is low hanging fruit

Syndicators went after low hanging fruit. 

If it's working as an LTR and you are cash flowing, I'd be willing to bet that the juice won't be worth the squeeze in converting them to STRs. 

These guys can help a lot if you would like some hand holding and access to the latest low-hanging fruit to build your business scores: [AD LINK REMOVED]

Entirely different.I posted for you, however you either did not read it or just did not follow.You'd do well by focusing on lead generation rather than trying to squeeze juice from a dry lemon.
