I have no experience in this field aside from the books and videos I've been watching (Drinking from a fire hose).

However, our realtor did an amazing job of putting us at ease and going the extra mile with videoing unit and going over to look at anything when we had questions or concerns.

Youll also so a lot of the other videos on fasting.

This is why I highly suggest hosts check into the info Justin Ford has, and the educational videos and course he provides.

If they are going to be there post closing, at minimum have your agent do a final walk and take photos and video as you will now be the landlord and responsible to hold them accountable for any damage, so document.Once you get it up as a STR, you should go at least once a quarter to make sure cleaners are doing a great job and make any needed repairs or adjustments.

For example, I mention that every adult must pay a $30 application fee, pass my credit/criminal background, make a combined income of 3x the rent, and whether or not the property accepts pets.

Here's a PARTIAL list:Office rentComputers, printers & softwareInternet & phone billOffice furnitureOffice supplies: paper, postage, ink, etc.Office liability insuranceAuto expenses: monthly payment, insurance, gas, maintenance, registration/plate feesBroker license fees: annual, monthly board & MLS fees, continuing education fees, E&O insuranceEquipment: lockboxes, signs, etc.Business income tax preparation and paymentsStaff payroll & payroll taxes Time Tasks: answering phones, calling past due tenants, scheduling tours, taking marketing pics, processing those pics, writing ads, researching rent amounts, posting ads, explaining to owners how rent determined & showing where ad posted, opening & processing mail, posting payments, bank deposits, scanning documents & posting to owner & tenant portals, explaining accounting to owners so they understand their monthly statements, taking pics/videos of repairs, finding reputable handymen and contractors, confirming they're properly licensed & insured and tracking annually, verifying repairs done properly, processing invoices for utility bills, repairs, taxes, city inspections, scheduling periodic property evaluations/inspections with tenants that don't want strangers in their homes, explaining to owners why taking so long, and more & more & more...

So I'll just PM you and you can also see my website for the full details to vet me out, check out my google reviews and testimonial videos etc. :)  It's in the signature below. :)

I haven't found an answer to this specific question on BP or elsewhere online: if I die, and my SDIRA that holds investment property goes to my adult child, what are his/her options? 

Adam Adams recorded a video how to set it up long ago and it was a great blueprint to follow
