Your comments about acquiring real estate in strategic locations and wanting to rent to voucher recipients for the benefit of guaranteed rent may be at conflict with each other.

@Michael Belz Photos are the only marketing you have when it comes to Airbnb... we onboarded 3 large homes in upstate NY 1.5 years ago, we brought in models, candles, throws, extra decor and the properties are beating their comps who had nice quality but un-staged photos by around 18%.  

I like faster growth, land locked markets with premiums.

-We have to move forward to help mitigate this problem b/c one owner lives 3 hours away and I live 30 min away and can't be at the house daily to empty dehumidifiers.

But we live in an imperfect, often overly-litigious world where many people have problems with alcohol and could be triggered or even be at risk of ending their hard-fought sobriety by the unexpected presence of a bottle in their living space.

There is an abundant amount of deals beating the 1% rule there.

Virtually the same money, faster acquisition, fewer problems regarding title insurance, etc.

So you’ll be at least presentable when you apply for mortgage financing. 8.

The HML as you know never leave their office.. they collect data just like a bank does order the appraisal and all that jazz we dont do any of it.. we will run criminal though we dont want to be funding any bad actors or dead beats.

The potential NOI and cash flows seem to be roughly double what a comparable ‘vanilla’ multi-family would be at the same purchase price (such as a 3-unit apartment building).Many of the 14 bedrooms had not been fixed up in decades.
