I really want to be as hands odd as possible with operations so I’m willing to spend on a good property management company (mentioning again I’m not as concerned about cash flow today)any insight into markets you are aware of with good alleviation outlook over next 10 years?

Core inflation is barely below 3%, and jobs, while weak (and even weaker now that the data is apparently way off), are not dropping off the cliffs required to justify a 25+ bps drop.

After Operating Expenses are deducted, we're looking at about $13K in NOI.Purchased for cash at the full asking price of $244,900, and assuming NO CapEx or renovations, that's about a 5.3% Cash-on-Cash return.What am I missing?

Net Operating Income is Income - Expenses Before the mortgage. 

And while there are a ton of people on these forums and social media that I would never trust my money with, there are also a lot of people/companies that are on social media that are great operators with long track records.If you are not going to go that route, I recommend you start hitting up local meetups and REIA groups.

We include real expenses accustomed to STRs so you can see the actual operating costs.

What are the operating expenses of running the Airbnb?
