@Jonathan Twombly

I appreciate the suggestion! I have not heard of Crexi before so I am looking forward to playing around with their website. 

Thank you!

Hello Everyone, 

My name is Xavier. My partner and I are actively pursing to purchase a Hotel/Motel/Multifamily in Big Bear CA, Gulf Shores AL, Gatlinburg TN, and Forgotten Coast FL by Q1 of this year. We currently have multiple short term rentals in CA and TN and are looking to grow our portfolio. Does anyone know of any commercial brokers in those 4 areas? If you know of any commercial brokers in other vacation rental areas all recommendations and introductions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks!

Hello Alix, 

Where is this motel located? Are there any major attractions in the area that would make it appealing to keep as a motel?

Welcome @Xavier Marin.  I house-hack in St. Paul, and would refer you to @Tim Swierczek who looks like he's made his name known already :)  Also recommend connecting with @Adam Tafel as a great investment-minded agent.  Feel free to connect with me as well if you want to hear about my experience.

@Jeff Schemmel Thank you for the recommendation! It would be great to connect with you as well. Request to follow!

@Xavier Marin Welcome to the Twin Cities Is be happy to grab a coffee and talk investing.  I can also fill you in on the changes to the 5% conventional loan. 

@Tim Swierczek That sounds great! Let me know what days and times work best for you. I work the standard 8 to 5 but I'm flexible depending on the day.

Hi Xavier welcome to MN!  I am currently house hacking in Saint Paul and would be happy to connect you with the lender I used! I also enjoyed the realtor I worked with, she is a real estate investor and works with other house hackers. 

Thanks for commenting, Kaden! That would be great, would you prefer connecting via BP, social media or text?

Hello Everyone, 

My name is Xavier Marin. I am a out of state buy and hold investor in Tennessee and relocated to the Twin Cities last summer. I am currently renting an apartment near downtown Minneapolis and I am looking to purchase a multifamily w/a 5% owner occupant loan or potentially using a 203k loan to purchase a single family home to add value. I am mainly focused in St. Louis Park, Edina and South Minneapolis Area. I am looking to connect with any investors that are house hacking in the Twin Cities, Wholesalers, and Lenders. I look forward to connecting!
