But if you are expecting them to do any of the work for you, i.e. walk properties with you showing you things to lookout for, providing contractor lists, setting a rehab vision unique to that property and market to maximize your ARV... well, I have never seen a guru or course do this.

I would argue that the three biggest things that differentiate a hotel room from an Airbnb are uniqueness, a washer/dryer and a kitchen.
