I know from experience that things will ALWAYS COME UP IN RENOVATIONS and it can honestly be hard to agree on the allocated time for some of these changes)- Plus many more items - it's easy to get out of control with contracts. 

@Steve Vaughan     this is the fantastic advice Steve has been giving for years on BP..

I only see one person giving you the correct advice.Your focus should be on paying off the debt, controlling your finances, and building your credit.

Maintain control of your rental.

She mentioned they would like to have their own website where they have full control and can list all their properties available and potentially have them booked through this site to avoid fees associated with other platforms such as airbnb.

I do not have a sheet but I typically budget $150 for lawn, $150 for pool if applicable, $100 for cable, $100 for water, $300 a month for electric (depending on property size and your local utility costs), $50 for pest control, and another $200 per month in misc. 

Once the debt is under control, you'll be in a better position to purchase another rental or explore Airbnb.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Most Turnkey providers only do the bare minimum to maximize their own returns, which can lead to issues down the road.With Value Add properties, you control the rehab process.

It’s your deal—don’t let anyone else control it!

Connecting with locals who have experience in this area is a fantastic way to gain insights and avoid common pitfalls.Since you’re looking to buy in the next 12 months, I recommend starting by networking with other investors and real estate professionals in the area.
