So I steer clear of them and instruct my team to pass those people along to me to handle.I also have nothing more than my word and all of our 80+ all 5 star reviews. 

As I speak to I have full closing on them, an attorney does a review and completes the C4D. 

I also like to check reviews on platforms like Yelp, Google, or even Angi (formerly Angie’s List).

I am seeking a partner with significant financial resources to help bring my vision to life.I am open to any advice or ideas you might have.Thank you, I agree with Jay, you will not find a lender to lend on this type of project but you are going to need to bring in an equity partner.

Another great option is the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), where you buy a fixer-upper, renovate it, rent it out, and refinance to pull your cash back for the next deal, and this is a good route because most private lenders can go higher LTV than on a rental loan! 

Most out of state investors are better off just acting as private lenders, buying low cost index funds or keeping their money in HYSAs.

The other challenge is selling it, there is a smaller buyer pool for hospitality in a small market but that was known going in Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

However, many DSCR lenders have a minimum loan amount of $100K, which can make it challenging for investors to secure financing for lower-priced properties. 

However, I’d love to hear insights from the community:1.Are there specific lenders or institutions you’d recommend that cater to international investors?

Aim for 720+ for best rates, I suggest start building relationships with your local lenders.
