This goes on until you have final agreement. 

This will clarify and reinforce what you are reading.

There MIGHT be a great realtor you find that has an ok property management team.

I'd check local STR FB groups and see if you have a local Real Estate Club.You can offer your services there, maybe for free in exchange for the experience.

I wanted to get advice before pitching it and have a solid financing strategy. 

I don't have a lot of capital to buy a property right now in the area that I would like.People that get into businesses like these have a common thread, they are go getters and hustlers! 

I have some YouTube videos that may help with some of your questions and always happy to have a call to dive a little deeper. 1. which development(s) tends to be the best for ROI/have the best occupancy rates? 

They have a 5 year draw.  

LOL but this route you have only 4 weeks to contact all the sellers MULTIPLE TIMES.- The golden rule in my group is the seller has to have a deal, the numbers work, be willing to sign, be willing to move out no later then 7 calendar days prior to the auction!!!!! 

This is a solid spot to connect with folks.
