@Edwin AlvarezI recommend finding local meetups to attend. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521I have found all of my best connections at local meetups.

Many months of costly vacancy, local market rent & resale deteriation, special assessments, property taxes and maintanance fees suggest a quick sale would have been the wise thing to do 2 years ago.

Be very careful who you take advice from online, you should get involved with a local attorney and a local realtor.

Attend your local REI meet-ups and try to find someone who is currently house-hacking or has house-hacked in the past to learn from their experience.

Im not an STR SME - I would check with Mike Savage and Dan Rivers - theyre the local experts on STRs.

Franklin Home Store and Vacasa are 2 local ones I found with a quick google search and I have no idea what they charge.If you want to consider the self-managing route, DM me and I can walk through the details.

Yep check BP and Meetup.com or Eventbrite for local meetups @Baron Wheeler
