Either you're going fix it or someone else will, but you'll pay them for the privilege.

Question: your current model worked well.

It may cash flow for a year or 2 but once things start breaking or something goes south with a tenant or it sits vacant for a few months, all of that previous "cash flow" is wiped out.The business model is a high CapEx / low cash flow business model relative to the value of the assets.Rentals are a great long-term wealth-building vehicle (appreciation, loan pay down, tax benefits, etc).Don’t rely on them to pay for your groceries.Sounds like you have a lot of experience in negative CF, and not in positive CF. 

I am 23 years old on December 31st , 2024 and have been always very interested in fix and flip or wholeselling homes since I was a teenager.

The same logic goes for the LTR insurance with adding premiums (which is really what Sthe STR insurance model is)Most STR insurance is exactly the same thing as LTR with tons of premiums added for unnecessary reasons like no one will ever use.  

But it, rent rooms, Fix it up.
