However, if you analyze what we have vs. what other states have there are numerous reasons why we are a great state to invest in.I hope all of that makes sense but feel free to ask anything additional. 

However, we are required by law to accept direction from 51% of the beneficial interests. 

We are opening Monday!

Our cleaning fees for the year were $40k, landscaping $2.5k, handyman $3k... all tasks that can be done by an operator and off set the loss of income from occupying the main house that brought in about $40k for 2024.My wife and I have decided that even though it makes good money, we have been in Texas for a year and we want to do something similar here and we are very much DIY people and don't want a PM company to run it to the ground.

Overall it did take a bit more cash than we wanted, but we are very happy with the result and may consider selling in a few years once rates cooperate with higher purchase prices.

The hurdle that we are facing is insurance.

We had ours done on a turnover day so we didn't miss a beat.We have a 6 bedroom cabin in Wears Valley that can sleep up to 23.

(just looking for a ballpark here)- Average number of room turnovers per year - PadSplit says the average tenant stays 9 months- Average cost of each room turnover (room & carpet cleaning, repairs due to wear and tear)- Repairs and maintenance - how much are you typically setting aside for this?

I'm recently married and we are living in my house that I bought using the VA loan.

Here's how I do my due diligence:1) Portfolio matching: (takes 30 seconds per deal)a) Have an educated opinion on where I think we are in the real estate cycles (financial and physical market cycles)b) Then and only then do I pick the strategies, capital stack, and specialized asset subclasses that make sense for that opinion.
