I think I remember watching an actual Bigger Pockets Youtube video of a young lady who does this. 

The kicker is that the HOA put a charge of almost $5,000.00 onto my monthly statement .I called them on it, and the lady says that the board decided that they are splitting the bill between me and the neighbor with whom I share a wall on one side.

I talked with a lady who runs one there and she does OK.

Most of my tenants  were clean and after they moved out I had to only pay a cleaning lady $400 to clean.

You could use that money to buy properties and teach the young lady how to manage them.....Just my $0.02

@Nancy Benderi'm a Realtor, and to my knowledge the only units in Keowee Key that allow STR's are townhomes- not single family.

Here’s the situation, we’ve rented here for 12 years from an old lady that lives an hour away.

If some little old lady qualifies and has good credit, rental history, what's the issue?

Overall the air is full of potential and I asked my airbnb host to buy his place, its a larger lot w 2 buildings, hes renting essentially 4 rooms/studios out some without kitchen and theres a room for the 247 cleaner lady and a pool (tiny) in the middle, 2 parking spots, 450k.
