BUT, let’s say for personal reasons you want to “stretch” for faster wealth accumulation.  

Personally, I'd cash-out refinance into a 30 or 15 year loan.

They paid their portion of the rent.I have found a lot of investors bring their personal or political feelings into the investing conversation. 

Raising your credit score will get you far better rates personally as well as with private lenders for your LLC. 

There is a large population of low income persons who are poorly integrated and somewhat centralized.

Some high-end STR's (like in Joshua Tree) do use professional models, but for your market and property type, I’d suggest removing personal photos and focusing on the space itself, so guests can imagine themselves there, which is really what you want.You also have 81 photos, that’s too many.

Personally, I would hold onto the home a bit longer.

Nice to connect 😎Its in Joliet - Cathedral area I hope to meet you in person as well?

Personally I would want to manage the rental myself at least in the beginning to make sure you get good ratings.

People want reliability, honesty, being on time, and having a good personality more than just a few $$.
