Not only does it hurt the returns, it is a very attractive target for ambulance-chasing lawyers and title fraud.  

This is where I would focus, as these are the same attributes that attracted those responsible for the larger projects like the Bellweather District you mentioned in your initial post.With your budget I would recommend NW Philadelphia (Germantown and Mount Airy in particular).

Class A properties are going to cost you more, have lower cash flow, yet be more attractive to a higher quality tenant base.

These markets are attractive because of their diverse, resilient economies, lower priced homes, and stable home price appreciation.

Position these as limited-time deals to attract budget-conscious travelers.Be Responsive and Personable: Guests often book based on their interaction with a host.

Similarly, if you are you a medical professional with strong connections at the local hospital, then target properties (and their owners) that would attract medical travelers.

For investors looking to maximize returns while managing risk, here’s why this type of deal stands out compared to Treasuries.Treasuries: Safety with Limited UpsideTreasuries are an attractive option for those seeking safety, especially short-term bonds with maturities of one year or less.

As a result, this isn’t the kind of market that attracts top-tier PM talent.Your best solution might be to either:1.Take on self-management if possible (and if you’re willing to put in the time/effort).2.Find an individual you can trust to handle these properties, set up very specific instructions and processes, micro-manage them initially to ensure standards are met, and compensate them well to make it worth their while.This approach requires more oversight on your part but can yield better results in markets like this.

Build a strong brand, leverage content marketing, and establish a personal brand to attract investors and build credibility.

I think for the 2 other attractions nearby, a lot of people I'm assuming aren't needing lodging for the museum and or park.
