I guess I can keep it as a STR and push my way through, it would just be nice if it was something that worked for someone right now and helped me take a step back for a bit, and go back to STR when I have more ability to keep up with it!

I also have $100,000 in the bank, and I'm trying to figure out what steps to take next.

but i hear ya. you do get what you pay for though and its not a race.. real estate is a long game and to me far more important to buy quality assets then taking 2 steps forward and 1 backward.. you may want to try both and see how they play out.. remote rehab simply is the most risky thing you can do in RE full stop.
