Impressive! 

For all those landlords who are having trouble collecting rent you will want to look into the rent relief program for your state. 

As a syndication it might work but youd need to collect about $5m from investors willing to take this risk, not easy in general, especially without a track record.

I checked out your profile and I’m impressed with what you’ve done over the last decade with the BRRRR strategy.

I would agree that general networking and education help lead you to a market,  but it gets overwhelming in where you turn to collect data from there. 

If I understand correctly, Airbnb automatically collects Anchorage muni 12% tax from the guest (see article here) and I don't need to worry about it.

The only way you avoid this is collecting cash or check.

Our advantage is that the students are already prescreened and all of them have education loans, so no problem with rent collection. 

Our town generally sees 10%+ appreciation every year since it’s a very desirable school district. we would like to be able to sell each side of the duplex individually to collectively be able to sell them for much more money.  

So, instead of a flat fee, offer a higher percentage of collected rents.
