what factors should I be looking at when making this decision.  

Are they doing everything possible to expose properties to the broadest possible market?

It could certainly be a concern - but depends on a lot of factors - are you looking multi or SFR? 

There are markets that have built in "gotchas" like the rising cost of insurance in coastal FL, regulations in much of the west coast states and property taxes in Texas; however, the deal itself is the most critical factor.

That is something that is growing due to the limitations of STR.MTR is something that will help you but you will have to be a bit flexible in the times that you are planning to come in.Management is cheaper than STR, but you have to consider other factors such as close to places where those MTR are in need.

A lot of people travel with pets so charging an extra fee can make up for potential damage plus you expose your property to a broader market that can help with bookings.

That’s the very simplified version but raising capital is always your biggest limiting factor so the more investors you can connect with the better. 

Make sure we're accounting for the appreciation, cost of the sale, cost of the purchase and one of my favorite factors, the risk.

Most times landlords don't have data or cannot adequately factor in vacancy time or turnover rate.
