I would use cleaning services but it's my understanding I could use more than one company over the course of the year to limit how many hours one company spends on it.I'm looking into a utilitarian STR more for business travelers, so this won't be one where everything is perfect, it's bound to accumulate wear and tear I think.The STR would be out of state, but I plan to travel there for probably two weeks a year where I would perform many repairs myself.

My house hacking plan is to get a distressed MFH using a FHA 203k loan with about 3.5-5% down, and fix up the property to increase my equity.

Currently working on the floor plans.

Losing $50k through this is not ideal, but I’m fortunate that it is not a painful sum to lose.What I am seeking is advice on how to leave evidence in the public record that could be found by future landlords and limited partners vetting the GP, who’s seeking $8M total / $250k each from accredited investors per facility as he seems to have a plan to move around the country opening facilities.A $57k bill could be a devastating to many landlords, and I want to help prevent them from experiencing a similar situation. 

Sure, some absolutely have benefited, S.Korea is a fair example BUT, one can argue it would just be "Korea" today if only MacArthur wasn't planning a run for President there after and ignored Chinas warning and offer of peace to stop with all but total victory, instead pushing to Chinese border, pulling them into it and literally loosing the entire north....
