I think it depends on goals and experience, section 8 is a good guaranteed income, air bnb or short term will have higher rents but you will have more monthly expenses (cleaning, internet, lawncare) student housing is another option, and then good old LTR.

When I get back in town, I go and look at the property and it has major foundation issues and needed a whole new central heating and air and ductwork.  

The dogs recently chewed my central air compressor resulting in a repair for which I told the tenant they were responsible.

You can make minor adjustments based on the type of appliances (dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer, air conditioning, etc.) and the size of the rental.

Both Air Cover & VRBO provide medical liability up to $1M (and we are currently only listed with those two with no plans yet to host directly).

If someone or a business owns a corporate aircraft like a King Air or a LearJet, we manage the asset, conduct maintenance, provide pilot services and concierge services.

It's very expensive, has horrible traffic on restrictive roads due to the geography, but is very beautiful, not much snow, milder temperature swings, great hiking and outdoor activities such as 4x4 or hot air balloon tours - very touristy.  

We are thinking of doing Air BnB to rent it out and I have looked at what's out there on Air BnB, HomeAway, FlipKey and other sites to see if similar homes are rented out yet for summer 2018 and it appears they are all still not rented out yet.

I'm now working on my second "dive into full-time REI" hahaThe first time I thought that I would be able to generate cashflow out of thin air and that I could half-*** my side gig of being an RE agent for investors. 

Honestly, these issues you've aired, a cold-blooded "Landlord" wouldn't loose a wink of sleep over.
