I have STR, MTR, and Long term rentals.

Hard money and private investing are both ways to finance flips, but they work a little differently.Hard money loans are typically from companies or private lenders that specialize in short-term, high-interest loans.

It's unit turns after and often tenants who leave on bad terms take it out on the unit, etc.

Quote from @Nithin Kumar: New to Phoenix and hearing a lot of places for rental investments but trying to figure out from the pro's around to find what are the areas that can break-even on a monthly basis and the areas that can show appreciation in the nearer term. planning to put down payment of 30% (~100k) Hi Nithin, I live in North Phoenix myself and would recommend anything around the Paradise Valley Mall area.

I am interested in buying a long-term turnkey property in a nice area (I live in San Diego so this property would have to be out of state).

You lose all of the control and these are long term investments - but in my experience the returns match what I had on the active real estate and I am hiring professionals to manage the assets.  

@Kevin Connauton, I agree with you that although Pad Split is a great choice for getting the rooms filled, they don't cover all your bases in terms of property management.

With countless loan options, complex terms, and strict lending criteria, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

Is the mid term rental business that you have a 'rental arbitrage' business?
