I have several questions to answer before writing a proposal and would greatly appreciate any advice whether broad or specific:-What are the advantages of a partnership with a pre-determined percentage of profits shared VS a personal loan with a fixed interest rate?

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? 

Restoring this property to a "like new" condition, move-in ready for a buyer What was the outcome?

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.

Furnishing it with a theme What was the outcome?
