Thanks @Dave Foster.

It can also help you inspire respect and trust from others by projecting confidence and professionalism.

I sent you a private message and would love to assist you here in your house hacking search.I am very familiar with all three of those markets and feel confident I could assist you in finding a great opportunity in the next 60 days! 

I'd never buy a development unless I was confident in the valuation and there was data to back the feasibility of the build. having preliminary approval is very different than permit ready where you can put a shovel in the ground day one.

You wanna keep going because your confidence  is 100%.

They offered assurances as to their high level of confidence in the applicant, but have provided any other info on the tenant.

I’m confident this is a great deal but would like to get some pointers/tips from seasoned investors.

Maybe that'll give me more confidence to manage this second property remotely + increase bookings of my current place. 

I’m confident long term holds will present themselves along the way, I just need to focus on what can work in the next 12-24 months. 

You should never take a dollar from an investor unless you are 100% confident in your numbers and your ability to execute.
