That's the rent-by-the-room model.

Since the utilities will be in my name, what model would be most appropriate?

Looking at properties around AL and though Birmingham is big enough and has a low  cost of living, the median household price is lower than I’d like which gives me pause in trying to establish a TOH model.

That's also the reason that the BRRRR model works best when you're able to either pay full cash or borrow the full amount of the loan when you make the initial purchase.

I am looking to scale up and find another deal with the same investment model in mine. 

In my situation our roles split like this:- Me: Financial modeling, biz opps, deal sourcing, financial structures, vendor negotiations, marketing- Partner: investor relations, daily operations, tenant/vendor managementThis doesn't mean that we both don't get a say, its just that this allows us to divide and conquer on efforts.As far as exits are concerned - If one of us wanted to leave, then the other has the right to buy out (which could take time of course).

You must know the complete business model and best practices.

Exit strategies can differ based on your goals or situation but its easier to compare investments if you have a nice model with a sold price and total profit.

IRR is a very easily manipulated model.

They also completed a 25 million series B funding in summer of 2019 that values the company at 127 million, which is a good signal for expansion.What appeals to me about this model, is you can go buy a couple acres of land ( Hipcamp suggest a 2 acre minimum), make some minor infrastructure upgrades and then build a couple A-frame tiny cabins, some yurts or simply just a clearing that would allow for someone to pitch a tent.
