I would like to learn about self-storage investing. What's the best online course?

I am planning to invest in boutique hotels / motels. I would like to identify a coach, meet ups or online course to learn about it and make sure I do the right due diligence. Any suggestion?

I am looking at alternatives financing to Velocity Mortgage?

Basically, other lenders for assets based loans? Bank statement loans? (any BUT no hard money lenders) with rates <6%

I have rental properties in California. I want to better protect myself and have an LLC. I heard that having an LLC in Nevada or Wyoming offer max protection. Is it true? Even though I reside in CA?

I took 2 online Airbnb courses recently: Brian Page & the Airbnb investment properties course call Cash Flow Street. I much preferred the one at cashflowstreet.com because it is focused both on making money renting & sub-leasing but ALSO on buying Airbnb properties in legal zoning. To me, it's key to have a long-term buy & hold strategy and I am so excited to now have the tools to identify very profitable Airbnb properties. Cash Flow Street gives all the tools to identify those properties.

Post: Possible to get a <5% 30y loan after quitting job?

I am thinking about leaving my job, but I am wondering whether it will be possible to get loans from banks at <5% for 30 years. I don't want to rely on hard money lender. I already have 20 properties and there is a good amount of equity in them. Any suggestion to get financing after leaving job?

I am trying to find the right resources to identify the most profitable Airbnb property (with also the highest ROI). So far I found:

- Mashvisor: https://www.mashvisor.com

- AirDNA: https://www.airdna.co

- Airbnb Academy: http://bit.ly/2ibATd7

Did any of you used them? Any success or recommendation for another site?
