New Investor - Where to invest capital - STR or LTR?

[Andrew Rader]

Hi all - I am a new investor who has done months of research on the various real estate asset classes. I have a good chunk of capital set aside for investment purposes. I am currently stuck on the best way to get started. Option A: use a turnkey company to allocate funds across 3-4 long term rentals in lower price point markets. Option B: invest all capital into one STR in an established market at a higher price point but with greater returns.

Open to all suggestions/thoughts! Thanks!

Depends on your goals. 

If you have time to self-manage the STR, I would go that route. (It may be worth it to also hire a PM for option B as well). On the flip side, if you are chasing passive income, I would opt for Option A.
