My updated expected monthly rental income will be $2,800, resulting in a cash flow of $795 per month (excluding my share of the split utilities).I plan to set aside at least 80% of my cash flow for property-related expenses.Additionally, I’ll be installing keypads and security cameras for enhanced safety and operational efficiency.

If your company were to manage the STR in CR how do you deal with matter of safety / home burglaries?

Be patient.
