Financing houses to short term rental operators?
Has anyone had any positive results from financing properties to people that own short term rentals? If I financed a property I would want more than the market rent rate or why would I lose my asset and future appreciation? My thoughts were if STR Operators are really tearing it up like they say they are maybe that would be a good fit for them and for me. If I'm dreaming please tell me so. Any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated! :-)

I just refinanced 6 properties in th elast 2 months and I can tell you I had a 100 places I could have gone to for funding. If you mean new purchases , OK I get that and you see 20-25% but remember that of LTV. I can get a loan all day long with zero out of pocket depending on the deal I find.
Not trying to dissuade you, just saying its much easier than you think unless you are only going after complete newbies who will agree to anything and pay anything.
