I buy for 80k with a private lender at 8%, maybe clean it up a little or maybe not.

Since you mentioned a construction site injury in your initial post, the best way to proactively avoid premises liability claims is by keeping a clean worksite.

Typically  issues are raised when the exterior is not kept up with / parking on grass / garbage in neighborhoods where everyone takes pretty good care of their homes.If you keep it clean and run a tight ship, you should be okay most of the time.

Plumbing: The plumber spent hours cleaning out “flushable wipes” from the pipes.

Most of the time is spent answering guest inquiries, scheduling cleanings, and handling the occasional issue that pops up.

Get your credit cleaned up, ditch the car payment and find a side hustle to grow capital. 

I came across few duplexes that I’m looking into in Wichita, hopefully inspection comes back clean and we buy these ones.

The plan is to put the rentals in SCH E of our joint return and file with TurboTax-We live in Florida-Leases under my wife's name, Airbnb app under my name, dedicated bank account for all rentals activity in the name of both-We have umbrella policy for liability protection for the rentals-We leverage some contractors (for example cleaning lady for the Airbnbs or lawn maintenance guy) that we pay >$600 for their services in a year and they are not our employees.

Direct expenses are expenses directly attributable to the rental units (ex: rental unit repairs/cleaning, advertising, rental adm exp, etc)

To stay ahead of any issues, we offer coordination of gutter cleaning and furnace tune-up every fall and spring clean-up every spring. 4) Own the outcome—This is the philosophy we live by.
