@Brad Hammond thanks! Of course they’ll be up over time, but this increase has been so rapid, I assume in another 2-3 years the Covid effect will go away and they’ll decrease to a “normal rate”. 

Anyone have any insights?

I’m just beginning my RE journey, but I can’t get over the feeling that it’s a bad time to buy and hold. If real estate values are at an all time high, would buying to hold and then refinance ever make sense? Values will likely be significantly lower in a few years, so it’s not like you’re missing out on equity growth by waiting?

Perhaps this just means flipping or short term rentals is the way to go at the moment. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks

Hi all. Looking to start in STR. I have a current real estate investor friend that is heavily invested in NYC LTR. I've been discussing the STR market, and he told me to come to him with a proposal as the potential COC is mind blowing for him. Is there a standard way that I should be structuring a partnership like this? Is it something like they put up the down payment and all cash flow goes to repay them, and then we split profit while I'm managing? Or do people do a split from the beginning, and eventually "buy" the equity partner out etc?

I don't know what I don't know, and I'm glad to receive any input.
