Hey @Brandon Wallace so first, you are managing a Short Term Rental, not an AirBNB.

VNQ or IRET are passive and actively managed ETFs in US that hold hundreds of REITs if you don't want to choose individual ones.

I understand they service builders/flippers by advising them on what's best for their investment and managing the selling process.

First off, the fees for this fund would dissuade me. 8.5% of EGI (6% for property & 2.5% for asset) for management?

I currently have a rental property and am looking at getting my real estate license and building a property management and property maintenance company to serve my investments and potentially others.
