Are you looking specifically for a licensed property manager, or are you looking for someone to host your STR and handle the day-to-day operations while you make passive income? 

I’m no hot tub expert so don’t have a specific recommendation but bought an Encore and it’s been amazing.Good luck!!

Did you have the properties already identified along with specific returns etc. or did you propose a hypothetical deal structure and get his agreement first before finding specific properties that fit your investment criteria? 

Definitely be careful, as most nationwide brokers will incorrectly rate you for traditional property management insurance, which almost always applies to LTRs and specifically excludes STRs in the fine print. 

@Mo Nueman what specifically do you need boots on the ground for?

Seller financing, lease options, or partnerships are alternative routes that might be suitable for your specific circumstances.Establish relationships with local real estate professionals such as agents, lenders, and contractors.

Feel free to message me with any specific questions. 

Those plans are specifically for your site, but I guess the worst that can happen is they copy your ideas for the floorplans, elevations, etc, but I think most GC's are too busy for all that.

They can provide insights into tax implications, specific filing requirements, and potential deductions.General advice?

The answer seems very broad vs specific to your circumstances.
