I've been in a co-living mastermind for a year, but I'm curious how you set your business up.

When it dies I won't replace it with an ice maker but they were over the moon to get the rental and this is the second set of tenants that said we don't care about the ice maker.

Make sure you have a bulletproof lease, treat the tenant fair but set expectations early on.  

I would say that the value he brings is finding the deals, doing an initial diligence, having a local team set up for renovations/repairs/property management as well as knowledge of the neighborhood.

In today's competitive real estate market, having modern amenities can set your property apart, making it more attractive to a wider audience.

Does anyone have experience of setting up a STR while in the same position? 

In terms of performance, I will be honest with you: it all comes down to your source of lists, the way you set up your campaigns, and last but not least, your templates.

The team members I've worked with are super nice, but I have to ask, are there significantly better turn key provider deals to be had with a little more patience/perhaps better expectations set from me?

You've only owned it six months, so you probably haven't dealt with vacancies, maintenance, or capex, but you should be setting money aside for those things.Your partnership agreement (if you have one) should address exit options.
