I purchased rentals that are clean BRRRRs and hit the 1% rule and grew my portfolio.

I think it depends on the condition of the property whether it needs full replacement of most parts or just cleaning refreshing.

My AC unit has another 3-5 years before it’ll need to be replaced so I’m thinking this may be a clean exit before large big ticket items start needing attention in the next 5 years.

You can open a business bank account, sign contracts, and handle expenses under the company’s name, keeping everything clean and organized.

Sewer Cabling/Drain Cleaning: When there's a blockage, usually paid by the owner unless the tenant caused it.

For when the house is vacated, cleaned up, and rent ready.

Before listing it, I had lots of expenses, including painting, floor refinishing, plumbing repairs, staging, cleaning, etc.In a 1031 exchange, I purchased two small multifamily homes which also have some roof work, painting, plumbing, etc. 

b) I was initially thinking short-term rental, which is where that surge of requests came from but it feels like a lot of work as I would be doing the turns/cleaning for most part so what are the pros-cons of mid-term? 

Then you also have it for the cleaners as needed.Then I would schedule some time for you to head over and do a full deep clean on the carpets yearly if they don't get messed up in between.

You can also rent Yurts, treehouses, or your own RV on the platform for more than a bare campsite, but that gets into too much cleaning and upkeep for the spirit of it.
