Hi BP Community,
For the last 18 years my W2 has been running a property management company, focusing mostly on large multifamily affordable housing high rises. I am looking to add some diversification to my personal retirement portfolio and a potential longer term goal of setting up something for my kids to build on later on if they follow that path.
I have been intrigued by the short term rental business and have enjoyed reading and researching this part of the industry. In the back of my mind I am wondering if I should abandon the STR idea and follow the multifamily path or just take a more passive route by investing in syndications.
If anyone has run across any forums that address this topic I would grateful for any suggestions. If you have any questions about affordable housing I would be happy to try and answer questions or some resources in my network.
Thanks and I look forward to meeting people along the way.
