That's how he runs a good (performing) ship so to speak.  

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Then if the STR is performing well, I would make the LTR a STR when the tenants move out. 

And is there a way to get an estimate on the costs to perform one.

If the tenants are currently there and performing I'd do whatever I could to keep them. 

I'm currently an owner of a 1 bedroom condo in the SF Bay Area, California that has performed okay on AirBNB and on the private market.I've got about $120k cash saved up (I know, not much, but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask)I'm looking to buy a second condo in cash, and am an all cash investor for religious reasons and do not deal with loans, etc.Are there any recommended regions in the US where I can get a Studio, 1 bedroom, or 2 bedroom condo for around $120k cash all in?

I will be leading the charge on building a scope of work, (if needed) reaching out to my extensive database of subcontractors for quotes/work, making selections/choosing materials, and the main one performing most of the hands-on labor, while teaching him (who has no experience) how to do these tasks.

Sure, some CPAs will perform bookkeeping for an additional fee, but handing your CPA a box full of reciepts at the end of the year is not a reasonable expectation.
