Depends on what sheets you buy and which cleaner you choose. 

So outsourcing some degree of property mgmt would be a must... but the deal won't work paying a local property manager a large % of my revenue...Instead, I would set up my "boots on the ground" (cleaners, handyman), and would need an offshore virtual assistant to manage guests and coordination of my local team. 

Not having to go find a good cleaner and handy person, proof of regular maintenance on the hard systems (A/C, Furnace etc) helps.

It will air October 10th. 

After reaching out to the wholesaler if they basically just threw their hands up in the air inside it's not our problem.

Either you do all the work yourself, i.e. no contractors, no managers and no cleaners - or you do 100 hours of hands-on work and none of these other people do more hours than you.

Currently I’m operating it as a STR, but I need a new cleaner and the quotes I’m getting are in some cases double my nightly rate, and the amount it grosses is only slightly more than what it will do as a LTR.

Can you come from a long day and cook a quick meal with an InstaPot or air fryer?

Almost always, vacuum cleaners.

For recent purchases: less than 3 years, you probably have to grow with them and think about how can you maximize returns: maybe ADUs, or Coin-laundry or e-pay, renting space on the property for storage, air b and b or mid term rentals, splitting the lots, Tic sales etc... or value add to increase appreciation faster!!
