Basically questions that the PM/co-host need to be able to answer without having to do any deep-dive analysis.Property-specific questions such as property improvement advice, revenue potential, etc. that involve deep-dive analysis might justifiably incur an up-front cost depending on the PM/co-hosts business model.

With the recent nation wide updates for flood modeling, you'll want to plan for bigger ponds.

Still waiting for someone to explain to me how this model truly benefits the property owner. 

If duties were merely split between operations, capital raising and deal sourcing based on individuals strength and to spread responsibilities, I would be more understanding but that's not the new age model.

Many investors choose a profit-sharing model for true equity partners, often splitting profits 50/50 or based on the level of their contribution to the deal, but ensure everything is clearly defined in writing to avoid misunderstanding/miscommunication. 

Building a network of agents, contractors, and lenders who understand cash flowing rentals and the BRRRR model will be key as you continue to scale.

But I don't think the broker model will entirely go away.

Very different business model from the KW's and EXPs of the world, but a strategy that works for some. 

I'm in several co-living groups, and the rent by the room model is getting more popular.

That is a simplistic model to be sure, but it is the same thing with all things in your life.
