Couldn't imagine sending a first time or even experienced investor into a situation blind at these price tags.

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.

There are lots of ways you could do this, but the execution is largely up to you.Most of the private lenders I have worked with were experienced real estate investors themselves with excess cash they wanted to put to work. 

@Ray Dixon, most of my clients and experienced investors have at least $5k set aside for each property as a reserve fund.

I'd love to get input from experienced people here on this idea.I searched for this situation in the forums and found several discussions of selling to an LLC but not on point with my situation. 

Could an experienced s8 investor shed some light?

If you are experienced you can represent yourself on buying and selling. 

Either become an expert in the niche/market you want to invest in or invest passively alongside an experienced investor (syndications/funds).

Syndication deals are great for passive investing, letting you focus on your career while learning from experienced investors.
