- regional / drivable destination (I've personally rented out a bunch of Airbnbs here)- already established STR laws (while very strict, they have shown to grandfather in permits and haven't proposed a flat out ban that would also retroactively take away permits)- Fredericksburg also fights new hotels just as hard as STRs.

His videos use rented props to make it look like he's some guru but he is bottom-barrel scum who preys on the vulnerability and ignorance of people.

Median Prices for single families homes in the Chicagoland region went up about 7.4% as of November 2024. 

(minus whatever closing costs they're paying) its kind of regional how title work is done..

Looking for guidance on options. new builds aren't hard to finance and I would argue they are preferred to existing fix and flip loans, especially if you have experience. banks look at your experience, your builder's experience, loan structure, permits, etc you need to get an experienced builder familiar with advanced underwriting and negotiations with local, regional, and national lenders. in columbus we do ground up construction for clients at a 20% discount so they can BRRRR out of the new build with equity and we have pages and pages of data on what we build and why and it's all supported by market statistics. 

I am humbly of the opinion that the Sun Belt is entering a phase of more moderate growth and that the 'Rust Belt of Old' is the next region up to bat. 

If you don't have a content deliver network to show why people should come to your rural region, you might have a much more difficult time.

I'd say one of the issues I'm having in the Sarasota/Bradenton region is the rapid changing regulations in regards to STR.

Go work with community banks, regional banks, and local credit unions.

I won't be able to help out for that region, but that would help get a better answer from someone else.
