Twelve lessons ago, self-managing was a question mark. Now look at what you've built:
That's not a side hustle anymore. That's an operating system. And it opens two good doors:
Your systems are the hard part, and they transfer. Property #2 mostly plugs into templates, vendors, and tools you already run — the marginal effort is far below what #1 took. See Scaling Your STR Portfolio for when and how.
Maybe you've proven you can do it and decided your hours are worth more elsewhere. Handing off now is completely different from handing off in month one: you know exactly what good pricing, cleaning, and communication look like, so you can vet a PM sharply, negotiate the fee, and hold them to your standard. Start with Hiring Property Managers.
Whichever path you choose, the biggest lever left is buying the right next property — and that starts with an agent who actually understands STRs: regulations, revenue data, and what makes a property operate well. STR HUB matches investors with STR-specialized agents, free.
