This would be my first crack at a mid-term rental.I've got a property that I'd like to rent mid-term (30-90 days) to increase cash flow compared to a 12-month rental.

A good deal accounts for the cost of a PM, every-time, all day, every day.

Days on market are 80+ days on average, and many listings are reducing prices at least once while on the market.

You will be about $50 to $100 less than STRs on the lake per day.

At the end of the day, with out of state market and management, you'll always be left wondering, "are they doing as good of a job as I would?"...

At the end of the day, perhaps choose the one you find most desirable for your circumstances. 

Just driving in the area one day and saw a for sale sign.

The owner called me a few days after receiving.

Maybe, but I would think that is a rare day.
