You project $40k of sweat equity, but if you are doing virtually all the work yourself, you will be earning this $40k.  

.: Unfortunately STRs do not qualify for tax incentives. you will pay 33% income tax on earned income.

As an "employee" with a solo 401k you can contribute up to 100% of your S/E earnings up to $23k/$30,500 over 50). 

Even before when rates were low class A/B in desirable areas sold at negative cashflow and the buyers made a killing over time from appreciation and rent growth.

They seem to be quite negative with not much intended value add.The questions that I asked were thoughtful and were more about the composition of service offerings from folks who offer those services to property owners than just about the percentage charged for management.The title of the thread is co-hosting and management of STR’s.I would have expected to get more feedback about the questions that I asked from people that property manage or co-host.There are many people who have experienced down years due to poor management (listings, channels, revenue management) which means there is plenty of room for improvement and an opportunity to earn more for these clients even with the management fee ranges mentioned.

Except, for properties with an ARV greater than about $350k, I can show that the rehabber will earn a profit between about 12% to 15% of the ARV using 75% instead of 70%.

I'd overestimate what it will cost and the amount of time I think the project will be by at least a month to give yourself some cushioning and an idea of the margin of error you have in order to earn money.

Every market is a bit different, but sticking to what you would be desiring as a guest is more certain to hit than going based strictly off value.I find it ironic how vast the differences are between STR and LTR. 

Waiting does not earn money, time is a valuable commodity.

no,,just become a bird dog, learn, earn and save, then go on your own
