It's slick and can cut down on bad debt as well as reconciliation time after moveout. 

They did a good job and helped answer any questions I had about the 1031 exchange I did here in Chicago. 

STR's are a job. 

We invest for long term buy and hold in good areas B+Due to extreme highly demanding W2 jobs we are looking for credible FULLY vertically integrated turnkey companies to partner with.

However, as @Chad Hale mentioned, only if you can afford it - meaning both financially and mentally (e.g. how stable are both of your jobs, how long will it take you or your husband to find a replacement job, how much you have in reserves, and whether you guys are in a position to withstand that mental stress, etc.)When you mention 8k monthly, I am assuming that's net profit?

What I like about it is that multiple cleaners bid for the job.

Landlords in illinois for sfh rentals don't provide snow removal or lawn cutting so thats not an issue.   

I love my W2 job and am not looking for replacement income, but I do want to diversify my investment portfolio in the real estate sector while keeping my focus on what I love and do best -- emergency medicine!

It's never worth it to cut corners on permitting because it will cost you far more in the long run.

I'm falling way behind my plan, and with my W2 job becoming unbearable I want to accelerate my RE efforts.
