If they do, you may have a chance under the scenario you're proposing - if they share your concern for it's condition (although that seems unlikely since they've been living with it the way it is for some time, it seems).If you own it, it's pretty lowbrow to expect a neighbor to invest in your property. 

Ive owned a 3 family in Fitchburg MA for 4 years that has done exceptionally well with it, living for free in one unit for a while and constantly upgrading the property over the years.

Literally to save their lives.

I am interested in buying a long-term turnkey property in a nice area (I live in San Diego so this property would have to be out of state).

I live about 20-25 minutes away in Bloomfield Township (Lake Geneva mailing address) and have a rental in Delavan. 

Since STR “lives” on reviews, being “right” because of the contract the guests signed might be the most expensive “right” you’ve ever experienced.So what’s left for the “wanna be” STR investor in today’s market?  

He's lived in Japan a few years as well (Fukuoka, I believe).

. - My wife and I are 33 living in SF with $250k in cash & $250k in other equities. - $6k/ month is our freedom number from a W2- Buy & Hold MFH is our plan (turnkey with PM in place)- This quad was built in 2024 and we're able to secure a 3.75% 10 year rateHow's this deal looking or would it make more sense to go another route?

For reference, we're heavily involved in the co-living space, which is an unorthodox strategy but can perform exceptionally well with the right property and systems in place.
