I'd be interested to hear others that have specific experience with them. 

Looking for suggestions on any specific building materials, fixtures, accessories, furniture, and tech for a STR.  

Landscaping, exterior paint, and a new front door can boost value.Flooring & Paint – Fresh paint and updated flooring can modernize a space quickly and affordably.If you have specific questions, feel free to ask—I’m happy to help however I can.

However, if you are willing to go to the Central Valley, the price there are not much higher than the Midwest.I only buy in CA, only in Bay Area.I'm not gonna say your wrong David, but everything I know and have heard says your way-wrong.

This doesn't mean you should because out of state investing for a newbie is difficult and if you listen to the wrong people can really burn a whole in your pocket.That being said, if I were you, I would likely diversify my assets.
