What are some tips/suggestions you'd offer for Long Distance Self Management?  I am semi retired at age 44, I sold my franchise business 1 year ago and have a very good idea of what it takes to operate a business successfully. I have the time to self manage but not too sure what I'm getting into.  Any Tips or Suggestions are appreciated. TIA.  With property prices, rates, and available software platforms it seems to me self management right now is the only way to save on costs.

I'm looking for my first STR to purchase in Florida. I live in WI. I've discovered Windsor Hills near Disney World as a good starting point for myself.

I have 25% to put down on $600-$700K home (4-6 Bedroom).  I'd like to be able to handle the bookings, pricing and pre-booking questions myself.   I would need cleaning, pool maintenance, general maintenance services as they arise.

Can STRs in this area still cash flow under these general scenario with these prices, interest rates, saturated market? What could be a general cash on cash return for someone that was heavily involved in the success of the STR?

Thank you for any info you can provide
