I'm Darren Haddock, a passionate upcoming real estate investor with a keen eye for promising deals and a drive to collaborate with like-minded investors.

I know it is a very competitive market as well, but if you want to build something sustainable you will need:1) Sources to send you options.

Investment also spiked in Class A Short-Term Rentals (STR) and investors started paying higher and higher prices based upon anticipated STR rental rates, that exceeded sustainability based upon Long-Term Rental rates (LTR).

Structuring your financing properly allows for sustainable growth while mitigating risks.
