Get out of your comfort zone.

I personally wasn’t comfortable handing over the management of the claim process to someone else.

The brokers, more interested in doing a deal, would normally tell me to cross out what I didn’t like and write in whatever made me comfortable.

Feel free to comment on this form or DM me if that's more comfortable for you.

With some of your concerns I'm wondering if they are a good fit for you and if you're feeling comfortable, or if self-managing would be a better option. 

They can quickly do some mental math to see if they are comfortable "losing" 15% of their usual revenue.

Every time that happened we increased our savings by 75% of the difference and our spending by 25% until our spending hit a level that we were comfortable with. 

I’d like the flexibility of an STR but got comfortable with the risks of local government pushback because I can convert to LTR.

You need to find a place where you can comfortably connect with other people.  

Also, again making your property stand out to be more appealing to those who have to stay for an extended period, how will you make them most comfortable with the possibilities of a fixer-upper?
