Make sure you have smoke and CO detectors in appropriate places, GFCI outlets near water, functioning mechanicals, make sure everything is in good condition and you shouldn't have a problem.

I'm a CO based STR investor and STR-focused agent.

We only learned this meeting with the towns assistant commissioner of planning who was a co-worker of my wife who worked in city planning for a while.

She co-owns other cash flowing rental with me that she paid her 20% deposit on.

Sorry for everyone who is having bad experiences with Clayton and Co.

Or does it matter (can we create one in Colorado)?

Ask local materials distributors which contractors pay their billing on time, and who order materials consistently.Go to some local REI meetups and ask for referrals.Look at local jobsite and take note of truck signage.Of course verify their licensing, here's a link https://lni.wa.gov/licensing-permits/contractors/hiring-a-co...

Consider creative approaches like short-term rentals, ADUs, or co-living spaces that maximize income in limited spaces.

I brought my nephew with me for about 12 of my trips last year and I am much more limited this year, but I have been pretty much running the shadow management(managing the PMs as my co-assistant with another gal) on about 3 of our STRs and 2 of our LTRs so he has his hands full.

Several of my STR investor clients here in Colorado have used a designer, and they generally pick a few statement pieces that they spend money on and then go with FB marketplace  or even IKEA for smaller items.
