My head is going to explode as not sure where is best to look at  

They cannot wrap their head around the notion of the value of their time.

Hey @Matthew Short, head on over to https://turno.com/You should be able to find a bunch of folks who can clean.

In my head I ask myself if we should go for one less capital intensive LTR and give a local STR a try (for the tax advantages) as well. 

Is this the direction you want to eventually head in? 

They may/will not even look at the refi of a cash property unless you supply the HUD from the purchase which you do not have cause you haven't closed the loan.I think if you pursue this you are heading toward headache land and you may possibly screw yourself. 

Well @Sam McCormack, @Russell Brazil hit nail square on the head for impact in my team. 

As a local investor and head of an investment-focused real estate team, I’d love to chat and see how we can partner up.
