I have clients that have these kinds of arrangements, and while it is easier when an org fills your units, you can lose control of maintenance and cleanliness.

If you had bigger cabins only, definitely not.One thing I would add though is that your returns are somewhat based on your purchase price which you can control. 

  " Inventory should increase and prices should dip" Ray,you were so wrong in that prediction because as everyone knows, the  interest rate dropping and many people's rush to buy housing so they could work remotely actually caused price increases in so many places.  

Chris seems like a great person that is passionate about helping others take control of their money.

The Left must resist the urge to “help” with short-sighted, counter-productive policies like rent control.

This way I can also control the maintenance cap/ex aspect. 

Of the investors I’ve known who invest remotely, 9 out of 10 of them have lost money and sold those properties within a few years.

While you have no control over what happens to the party, you have control over what you buy.

In theory, you should be able to manage the job remotely, but there is a reason why I show up at least every other day.What is in dispute?

Don't let it control you and I am glad you asked.You really don't want to rely on appreciation to make up for the poor performance as a STR.This is too much of a risk IMHO.
