I am wondering what the best strategy is for removal of the current owner.

I currently manage a portfolio of 17 STRs, some are mine, but a majority for other owners.

I am working with some NJ clients on turnkey investments in the Midwest/midsouth markets currently.

There's no cost to use, and currently $25 fee for applicants. 

Quote from @Roger Flot: I was reviewing some renovated listings in my area and one indicated that even though the house was originally built in 1920, because of all the renovations bringing the house to current code, that you could get 2024 rates on insurance. 

I currently live in Prescott Az.

I’m currently getting under contract on a property for rent in Texas, our 4th, via DSCR. 

Hi Griffin,After investing in 30 rentals, I’ve found that decisions like this come down to whether your current return justifies keeping the property.
