Hello!
I'm looking for advice and your personal experiences with managing other peoples STR's. I manage my own two STR properties in Fayetteville, NC (not a vacation destination but we do get people visiting family at Fort Bragg and Methodist University) for 6 years now. I'm very familiar with Airbnb, VRBO, Houfy, Outdoorsy, and RVShare (I also rent and deliver a travel trailor). I would like to manage other's properties and start a small PM business for local STR's specifically. I also have experience renting properties long term for my father for several years before he passed away. My dad was an attorney so I have all the contracts and legal stuff down fairly well, thankfully I got a lot of knowledge from him about those things. I was the office manager for a commercial refrigeration/hvac company for several years. I did payroll, invoicing, accounts receivable, calls, emails, quotes, ordering, all of it! I loved it and I think my experience with that will be helpful. Before I start a new business I like to get advice from people who have actually done it before me so that's what I'm here for today, thank you!
