The only thing that would be different is that Proper covers revenue loss + all the bells and whistles  I feel I don't need for 2x the cost - squatters/bed bugs.Any input on this from more experienced STR investors or others with insurance backgrounds please?

I think I am learning that I probably should have said rent-ready and not turnkey, but I think you have answered the subtle question I was asking which is, is it possibly worthwhile to invest in properties that give you only one type of revenue (paying down the mortgage) and maybe don’t give back the cash immediately for the next investment?  

This marks the city’s largest office deal of 2024 and reinforces OpenAI's pivotal role in revitalizing the local office market.The company now occupies close to 1 million square feet of office space in the city, further cementing its commitment to in-person work and long-term growth.
