The in-house management markets, leases, cleans and deals with all the headaches.

We are analyzing a purchase near Vista and our partner on this effort looked up the following:1. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/14292365: Small studio rental in same area; historic converted carriage / barn = $100/night with 14 nights booked so far in May = $1400 for month2. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/9351161: 2bd/1ba guesthouse same area; non-historic and bland = ~$95/night with 24 nights booked so far in May = $2280 for month3. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17674810: 1bd/1ba same area; non-historic but well designed = ~$90/night with 19 nights booked so far in June = $1710 for monthYou probably would want to do more similar analysis on Vista before proceeding with the STR route. 

We bought vocation condo near Disney and rent it on airBNB, but it is hard to find good cleaning company.

@Jason H Orahoske 12 month clean history from last date of  late of payment.

I am finally enjoying a beer after a long night of cleaning and prep.

 $1,000 - $2,000 in painting, cleaning, patching, or replacing is not unrealistic.  

I also just replaced a boiler and instead of using their financing- I used the energy financing program through my power company- They have a 10 yr O% financing program and it’s even for non owner occupants.

There are only 3-4 lenders that do this though (called a non-recourse loan). and you cannot co-mingle any of your personal funds to help the Solo401k buy a property. 

Since reading rich dad poor dad I have been reading non stop and listening to the bp podcasts.

If using a lender this is a non issue.
