My guess is that if your parents will pay for it, and you choose a high ROI degree, like economics, computer science, etc. that you will have a high ROI investment that will give you a great income stream to borrow against in real estate investing, a great backup option to real estate if things get tough, or you hurt your back and need a desk job, and you might even find something you like. 

It’s really hard to do cohosting or managing unless you have a stream of clients that are investors like real estate agents or lenders would have.  

Anyway, I just don't want any bad blood if/when I hire someone else for the listing.

I gotta go take a cold shower before my blood boils over.

You don't need to sign a blood oath that you can't come back for X amount of months.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”Theodore Roosevelt, 1910

If they do not “need” the money today, they may enjoy getting a monthly income stream from you. 

Why sell to a big corp, when you've got 15 other warm-blooded families trying to buy your house from you.Interesting reading the original Bloomberg article, and you can see ReAlpha intends to fractionalize ownership of these SFR's turned STR's... almost like a distributed REIT using STR's... 

Said this would thin my blood out and make me feel better.  

This means you need to focus on an income stream and lifestyle that is stable and allows you more income than expenses.
