I suggest having smart TVs and let them log into their own accounts, preferably with a guest mode so they auto-log out after a certain number of days.For catering to families, I would concentrate on providing amenities like puzzles and games. 

Most states allow you to hire your own adjustor to come up with your own damage amount and then argue with the insurance company about.The insurance company will want to see the signed lease, proof of funds the tenant paid and confirmation the utilities were on and preferably in the tenant's name.

We’ve tried off-site laundry, but our sheets get mixed up and replaced with lower-quality ones, so we prefer on-site washing.Currently, our cleaners have about four hours between guests to process 6–8 loads, but the dryer is the bottleneck at 1.5 hours per load.

For reference I own exactly one handful (5) SFH  rentals in my hometown, all have been purchased in the last 4 years.1) buying at a discount is MY preferred way to reduce risk.

Some funds offer preferred equity and common equity in the capital stack.

It’s structured as a syndication, 60/40 LP/GP split with a 7% preferred return.

Since I am having my prospective tenants cover the cost I would prefer to have the lowest cost option that gives you the most bang for your buck, but at the same time I want to be sure that what I am paying for is reliable.

I do some of that and own some too, but I always prefer my long term rentals.

Preferred Returns.

You may be profitable, but I'd prefer to avoid the possibility of having to do unnecessary repairs or not holding my tenants accountable for damage when I know their actions might have caused any unforeseen damage.
