In our final short-term investment series episode: Jessica talks about creating a special guest book to give your property that extra oomph.   

Commit some time and resources into making a quality leatherbound booklet. Visit Etsy.com, search for a guest book template, there you will find great digital templates for download that integrate with Canva.com for design. In the guest book: Start with an inviting photo for your cover page, include a TOC, emergency contacts, WiFi password, house rules, instructions for appliances (and tech), resort amenities, recommendations and special local finds, best modes of transportation (walking routes as well), check out instructions, ask for a review, include your contact information.   

Matt discusses self-management. Make sure you fully understand your maintenance items and create a maintenance schedule. The Top Tech Tools: Get a Google voice number, use a calendar reservation manager (we use Guesty), automate your reminders with a system like Guesty (worth every penny), get a smart door lock that changes code, smart thermostat, motion sensor camera in supply cabinet and exterior.
