The fact that your 'turnkey company' is asking you to arrange inspection and cost for sewer would be worrisome to me quite frankly.

If it's an agent, they can also arrange an inspection.  

Let me share the arrangement I am doing with my PML.

The answer varies greatly depending on the arrangement of your deal with the owner/landlord but in general you need renters insurance to cover your contents (since you are renter presumably) and then excess liability coverage for your short term rental activities.

Arrange to pay them a reasonable down payment and monthly payments.2.

Thanks @Michael Wagner It's definitely intriguing and since I'm in the early stages of my research, doesn't require a total re-think.As of now, we are planning to move to the western NC / Asheville area.

As we navigate through various stages of property management, including renovations and strategizing for resale or rental, I'm looking to gather some insights from this knowledgeable community.I have a couple of specific questions:1.

Far too many get stuck in the "paralysis by analysis" stage, thinking they just don't know enough to get started.

So basically, to know if you are getting less return than the direct to Rise48 people, Spark would need to disclose their arrangement with Rise48 and you would need to look at your own subscription docs with Spark to see if they outline their own fees and carried interest.Although, I can speculate with pretty strong certainty that you are receiving a slightly lower return than direct to Rise48 investors.

If they want to seller finance it from you, that would be difficult since you're already the mortgagor on the 1st seller finance arrangement.
