What I've enjoyed about working with RTR is the fact that they are completely independent of all these parties and they can offer me unbiased opinions on different investment locations & properties as there are many different builders/sellers to choose from. 

We no longer manage vacation rentals but we use to charge 20%, which was on the lower side. 40% is higher than I ever heard of.

We have to block ahead of time so that we can enjoy the place too.

Best of luck, and enjoy AA.

I'm particularly passionate about rental propertiesOutside of real estate, I enjoy Tech and Sports.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

I feel like everyone went nuts post covid with vacation purchases and that has to come back to reality.

@Sebastian Bennett It is more so, the seller does not want to deal with the rental leases but was agreeable to vacating one unit because we plan to occupy one of the units (also as part of our loan).

That would require you to buy the next home either as a Second Home/Vacation home or investment home.

My take after well over 20 years of investing in real estate is that if you want to continue to enjoy a great and profitable career and also have a life, that you consider taking @Jim Pfeifer's advice.

Easy...Vacation Rentals - Suck!
