I'm working with some JV partners now to try to find something in the 10-30 unit range.

If you sold, you could look into doing a 1031 exchange to defer the capital gains, and use the ~$450K proceeds as a down payment on a MFH in the $1.5 - $1.8M range which at a decent CAP rate would bring you much better returns than what you're getting now. 

Within our price range.

If you are utilizing a channel manager on your own, I recommend VRBO (90+ days out) for long range guests (older clientele, who typically have more time and can plan our their stays further in advance) and let ABNB (0-90 days out) bat clean up. 

I think these are realistic numbers: neither a fantastic property nor a terrible one (and notice I've set the manager's fee at the top of the usual range).

However plowing, shoveling, and salting has not been an insignificant cost for us, probably in the range of 3-5%+ of our gross income (depending on how much salt they really use).

If you want some other recommendations Inspections123 with Brody (cheaper)OR Xspect Inspections (Mid range)   

@Jeff Davis if you are talking about doing a whole unit, then you are probably spending in the 12-20k range.

The legislation is intended (among other objectives) to prevent insiders and in the know investors from purchasing lots of near worthless start up shares in an IRA and having some of them grow tax free into tens or hundreds of millions (like Peter Thiel did with 1.7 million PayPal shares purchased in his IRA for only $1,700). 

I had my heart set on a nice little condo in Austin, but a duplex sounds a lot more profitable now that you mention it.Ideally, if I could find someone who would sell me a nice condo or duplex in central Austin in that budget range and within my preferences in this crazy market, I'd go for it.
