This ensures you’re protected in case of disputes and shows your commitment to maintaining the property thoughtfully and responsibly.I know this was longggg, but hope it helps you or anyone else with this same question. 

I don’t know if the subject sponsor committed fraud or not.  

My wife and I had a lot of money stolen from us by a so-called property manager in Cleveland (who was later brought to court by the attorney general due to other crimes he committed) and we ended up being able to place the property with Re/Max Haven Realty. 

As they describe it, it is not a 5 year commitment. 

That is our commitment to our investors. 

It has a lower turnover than STR but can bring in higher rent than traditional leases.Co-Living Arrangements: Renting rooms individually on a month-to-month basis could generate more income than a single long-term lease while reducing management hassle.Furnished Long-Term Rental: A furnished rental could allow for higher rent and attract tenants who don’t want the STR commitment but still value flexibility.Partner with a Local Boutique STR Manager: Some local companies manage STRs with lower fees than Airbnb's traditional managers and could help keep profits up without 20% fees.Hope that helps you with your decision!

Here’s what I believe everyone except maybe the most experienced investor should do BEFORE committing to invest directly1.

I would say if you vet the tenants appropriately no dog should commit that much in damages.

With experience in both the Treasure Coast and Boston markets, I bring a fresh perspective, local knowledge, and a commitment to helping cash investors, builders, and developers maximize their returns.

I love your commitment to transparency and taking care of your tenants.
