Not everything has to be logical and strictly numeric and fully optimized at the end of the dayThank you again and Best of Luck to you!

People are optimizing empty lots first and some knock downs are currently happening. 

With sites like Airbnb, VRBO, Homeaway and the like, it's never been easier to keep these units occupied and make great returns if you or the right property management company can manage it optimally.

The one thing they have going for you is that if you sign up they give you a website and you pick the template according to your niche and it's up in 5 minutes (keyword optimized), they are giving you a the template system for their bulk mailers that have had proven success (you just pick from a list of who you want to mail to in your area) a few clicks and it's done. 

I've actually seen the opposite play out several times where an extremely good PM can actually earn the owner more income overall while also saving them a lot of headaches at the same time.Things like doing a ton of ongoing research to optimize pricing and specials, listing and syncing across all marketing channels, and building up a large enough brand that people come back year after year can make such a huge difference and are pretty hard to do self-managing.I've seen one company double several owners incomes after coming on board.

After I made a few small fixes, optimized the listing and started managing myself, I have about 90% occupancy (even in January/February, the lowest season) and on track for roughly 45k a year.

When people go to your listing and don’t book, that’s a signal your listing isn’t optimized.

First, take a close look at your expenses—are there any you can trim or optimize?

Using pricing tools or keeping an eye on your competitors can optimize your earnings.3.
