Quote from @Justin Miller: Airbnb and VRBO's automated systems actively scan messages for external links, especially those leading to sites where direct booking is possible.Even if the link points only to your Guidebook page, if that page is hosted on your direct booking website and is "one click" away from a pricing or booking page, the platforms consider it an attempt to solicit off-platform bookings, which violates their Terms of Service.

The way REITs are structured nowadays, more than 90% of them are internally managed, eliminating the inherent conflict of externally managed REITs, and aligning the interests of management and shareholder to a much greater degree.  

To me, that says that -- no evidence to the contrary -- he rented out in violation of the town ordinance and (my take) now wants to whine that he got caught.AirBnB and other short term rentals (STR) need to be regulated because they impose externalities on neighbors and deprive local governments of revenue and -- depending on circumstances -- pose unfair competition on local hostelries.

In person, no one will care, but online, you are judged harsher.6.

Our primary focus is on buying non-performing loans which we are anticipating taking more of these properties back compared to prior years where we were able to work out more structure with the borrowers or have it sold at third-party auction that of course has other impacts such as making sure you have the right team not only internally but externally with property managers, contractors real estate agents on speed dial.

What I’m asking for (please be specific): Your experience launching under an external QB/BIC — what worked, what didn’t.Red flags (e.g., weak trust-account processes, slow ad approvals, unclear authority/access).Compensation models: monthly retainer, per-door supervision fee, rev-share, flat + performance, minimum terms/exit clauses.Ballpark ranges and how they scale with door count.Where you found them: NARPM Triangle chapter, local REALTOR associations, NCREC license/firm search, BP groups, LinkedIn, referrals.Contract must-haves (IC setup): authority, E&O proof, ad-approval SLA, trust-account signatories, data access, transition/exit clauses.  

Yes, you can have a baselane account(s) and/or link to external banks.

In older assets or harsher climates, the capital reserve often needs to be materially larger than the operating cushion.

External pics look good but haven't seen it in person (it's an hour away). 

Yea, RentRedi lacks the ability to even get the prior two landlords without having to use an external form.2.
