They have other nice benefits also such as not charging for appraisals if the deal doesn’t close, a great reputation amongst local listing agents with meeting deadlines/ great customer service/ getting the job done with no b.s. and they can often close in under 14 days. 

@Dana Sziklay ReynoldsHi Dana,I’m torn about investing in Melbourne , Perth or USA.The prices in Melbourne are crazy and I’m not sure if I would be able to make as much growth in Perth market.I’m in the research process now if you have any thoughts about it please let me know.Great meeting people from Perth on BP.Hopefully we can meet sometime for a coffee.

I may have to get a variance for the existing dwelling unit's parking requirement, but I believe I meet all the SB-9 requirements.

This is the exact same approach we are taking - information has gone out a few times in our newsletters over the last year and a half, with more details available upon request, along with FYIs to clients at year end or other regular meetings. 

I began inviting them to online zoom meetings I would hold with brokers, agents and investors... friends I had made along the way, where we would just talk strategy, loan types, current market trends etc.

And yes, to meet your goal doing this in 24 months IS viably possible, I've seen it done via 3 person team. 

There's plenty of info to soak up on BP but make sure you also attend local meet ups, even if they might be on other islands and network with local investors.

I sat in on a lot of the meetings with owners/city and it seems for the most part to me, the city is just not interesting in AirBnB and as an investor, that's not a good place to be or be right.There will always be probably a few people who skirt the law or think they have a good workaround, but often catch 22. 

If you're expecting property owners to sell their home to you at a discount, you'll need to earn their trust - whether that be by demonstrating a successful track record with purchasing/selling similar deals OR by meeting them face to face and separating yourself from the dozens of local investors and realtors.Lastly, I'd recommend searching past posts related to this topic as well as checking out books related to your target investment strategies.All the best!

However, my hold up is what market to look at that will help me meet my goals.
