Ownership Model: Semi-Passive Ownership (With Structure) 🧠⚙️
AireServ is designed for Semi-Passive Ownership, but with important guardrails.
Neighborly allows semi-passive ownership from day one provided:
- The owner hires a manager approved by Neighborly, and
- The manager completes training alongside the owner.
Fully passive ownership is not offered 🚫🛋️.
This model works well for owners who want to lead the business, not necessarily turn the wrenches—while still maintaining visibility and control 🔍📈.
