@Kerry Hermann - the posts by @Michael Ewers and @Samuel Coronado were solid advice (I don't know Nita Cook whom Sam referenced, so that's the only part of his post I can not comment on).I second what Michael said about the market here - it was fantastic from 2017 (when I started) through 2022 - then it really started to crater in 2023 (although we still found some deals), and the bottom completely dropped out in 2024 (found one small commercial deal and one residential flip deal in 2024 - that's it). 

@Travis TimmonsI had the same reaction as you did, but I held off on posting since I don't yet invest in STRs (I'm all LTR so far, and looking into my first MTR).Buying an STR "to offset income" makes me nervous as well...

The plan is to keep operating the property as a PadSplit post-acquisition.

Make it your business practice to post the notice to pay or quit precisely on the day after the grace period ends, every time.

Hi @Mirna Chinchilla, welcome to the BP Forum and I just came across your post!

If you got a report that someone was smoking cigarettes or cigars outside only, per the rules, would you post the same question?

This is a buy and hold in a great location in a great market Does anyone know of a group i can post this deal And last option we were considering was to use her cards to pay off my debt so then I can buy the house from her and get a loan on it If u made it this far thanks 🙂

Which no, I don't talk about, blog about or post about.
