We were very clear that we were looking for strategies and why and it all sounded good in the initial interview.

Initially it was great for them because the gc was cheaper they didn't have to gc and they got a bigger initial payout because the places appraised well. 

But their initial estimated personal property is only 8%.

I just started replacing them as part of initial rehab because they're almost always problematic.  

Recommend addressing this upfront in your ads and initial contact with a potential client.

If not, the estate is going to own a property until some dumb $hit comes along not recognizing the challenges of the current rents or the sellers wise up.It seems like you are not that dumb $hit; I feared you initially were but I believe you now understand the challenges of ending the tenant leases.  

Initially they seemed great, I spoke to a "helpful" sales rep who made it seem easy and smooth.

We deal with a lot of OOS investor in our Detroit market, for many of them we have to fix disasters their initial "team" caused.

I’m considering a blended strategy of vacation STRs and LTRs to balance cash flow, tax efficiency, and long-term growth, and I’d love feedback from those with experience.High-level approach: • STRs in high-demand leisure markets for stronger cash flow, tax benefits, and lifestyle benefits • LTRs in stable, affordable markets for predictable income and financing stability • Moderate leverage using conventional financing • Self-manage initially to learn the business, then transition to professional help • Use LLCs, depreciation strategies, and long-term portfolio optimizationQuestions: • Does this STR + LTR blend make sense for a physician pursuing financial independence?
