Hey Ben,Totally normal — two weeks with lots of inquiries but no bookings yet happens all the time when you’re new to mid-term rentals.

It's normally the investors who write about how they want to improve their business credit rating or grow their business credit who misunderstand.

And for a couple years i did mostly investment but a couple normal personal deals through things like realtor leads or whatever, and let me tell you, those "random" deals or clients that weren't my core type of client were the ones that I did not do well with. 

I know on my new builds that are 700 to 1 mil I get 10 to 20k and normally its just held in escrow. it is non refundable once we start putting in custom colors etc.

If you are renting rooms you want to cover visitors ect. sometimes people restrict visitors in units but I only use the normal clause in my long term lease of permission for more than 10 days/month.

It's normally the least experienced investors who gravitate towards low barrier inexpensive real estate.

Normally, you pay less since personal belongings are no longer covered. 

For example the in person auctions at the court house come with sheriff's deeds and we found it difficult to get title insurance thru our normal title provider.

It’s normal to feel the weight of it, especially as the finish line approaches.

That is interesting you are having that issue do long-term management here in Austin and I think we have seen a dip in the volume of rental applications certainly as we're going into the winter months but we are still approving applicants at our normal acceptance rate.
