Some of us are business minded and strive to add value beyond basic compliance and planning (which it doesn't even sound like you're getting planning here).

if i buy a rent ready house off the MLS, and put it under management with a good PM... that's basically turnkey too just without the label and the provider.one thing i notice on BP is how many new investors think they're being guaranteed outcomes rather than processes. 

The ones I manage total to 20 bedrooms.These rooms rent for between $125 to $225 per week depending on room size and amenities in the room (beyond basic amenities may include: Desk, Tv, private entry, tenant controlled AC, additional storage).This month after padsplit takes their 14.25% cut of the revenue I am recieving, from the units I own, $15,230 from 3 homes.

They can handle time-consuming tasks like lease renewals, tenant correspondence, and basic admin work.

I'm already familiar with some of the basics of how the markets differ, but I'd be curious to hear what some of you have experienced in regard to any unexpected differences between them. 

Stick to the basics. 

Basically every personal house we ever owned except this last one which we built from scratch.

STR without ownership is basically a STR PM job for you.  

It is easier for me because I have basically the opposite of ADHD, but putting everything on Google Calendar and blocking out what you want to do each week usually starts to work wonders if someone sticks to it.

Basically, you ask permission from the mortgage servicer, who then informs the mortgage investor assuming they are good with it.
