Your best bet if you want to wholesale (I don't know why anyone would) is to find a high volume local wholesaler and work for them for a while before going out on your own.Hello Jonathan,I appreciate your perspective, and I wanted to share more about my situation.

I currently have 25 accommodations on Hospitable, but it's starting to be limiting for the reasons you must have encountered.I'm currently looking into Guesty and Hostaway, and I'm having a hard time making a decision!

I would encourage you to break it down into. 1) single or multi family 2) Buy and hold vs flip --I would definitely buy and hold if you have limited knowledge when it comes to property repairs (you can always flip later).  

This would be ideal in terms of cash flow (after a few years) and equity appreciation since you'd be achieving tremendous returns on limited equity in the form of appreciation, principal paydown and tax benefits aside from only cash flow. 

However, the loan would need to be under my name, as they won’t allow LLCs.I’ve received advice from others who feel comfortable with this arrangement as long as they have high insurance coverage limits, which the lender also recommended.

Buying with cash simplifies management, eliminates interest, and increases immediate CoC returns but limits scalability and diversification.

Making matters worse the investor with limited resources cannot recover as easily as the investor who makes the risky investment but does so knowing they can afford to take the L. 

Often when new investors are excited to scale, especially with limited funds, they start looking into to getting a third on seller finance or sub to, but the first two properties have repairs coming and all you do is add a third property that needs repairs to your portfolio.This - "investing with limited funds (like distressed property flips)" - is an oxymoron.

Limited Future Borrowing: Tying up multiple properties as collateral may limit the borrower’s ability to secure additional financing in the future, as those assets are already committed.4.
