Sharing access through co-hosting is a common approach that allows the PM to perform their duties while you maintain control over the listing and its reviews.

@Daniel AlvarezI have using my spreadsheet to track performance for a few years now.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

We’ll consider additional upgrades, like a jacuzzi, once we see how well the property performs.

Biggest clauses are: who's responsible for what, what are the penalties if someone doesn't perform their duties (including forcing them out) and what happens if one party wants out and the others don't.BTW: your brother should do this with his new girlfriend BEFORE paying part of her mortgage!

Also, with the shift toward focusing on cash flow, are there any specific markets or types of properties you’re seeing that perform well, despite the challenges?

It is very common in the investment advisor space. for example, if I find an investment advisor and want to know how his client's portfolio has performed last 3 years they do not make that  information up, its verified. 

They didn't want men gambling away the house in a poker game and leaving the women and children without a place to live.The intent I think for a home to be designated your homestead is that is where you live. 

Performing a cost segregation study on these types of properties can offer additional tax savings.

For example DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loans look at tax returns to see how a property performs in terms of income and expenses to see what loan amount is justified. 2.
