The house is located in a relatively nice neighborhood near universities and plaza.

In construction your plans are your Bible, so you need to know how to locate any discrepencies, locate answers to questions froms trades, understanding "Take-offs" with your materials, and be able to visualize in a 3D space what the plans are describing.

Start with maintenance notes that you may regularly reference, such as air filter size, water shut-off location, etc.

You didn't tell us where you are located so it is hard to tell if you should try and find another place or not.If the folks are just willing to rent, then finding them a nice rental seems to be in order.

What you can require legally changes depending on your location. - If you make the above clear in the listing, you will immediately get fewer applicants.

It sounds like you’re in a great position to succeed, given your extensive renovation expertise.As a fellow real estate investor, I completely understand how challenging it can be to choose the right design elements, especially when you want to make a space appealing to potential buyers.

While I acknowledge that Long Island may not currently be the most optimal location for the BRRRR strategy, I am eagerly exploring opportunities in the tri-state area, including New Jersey, Pennsylvania (with particular interest in the Poconos), Connecticut, and beyond.

@Srini Rajamani if you’re interested in doing STR in FL and looking to have a successful and less saturated operation as compared to Orlando, I recommend reaching out to @Josh Green who is located in Tampa.

I am of the opinion that the best STRs are properties that don't compete with hotels - meaning that they are 4-5 bedrooms for large groups or have a unique location/setting.
