I have issues with numbers all the time here, mostly to do with impending property tax increases, so it would be nice to know this too.

They may have been introduced to wholesaling as a low-barrier entry into real estate and never considered licensing as a viable option.Why Getting Licensed Could Be Beneficial:Access to MLS: Licensed agents can access MLS listings, making it easier to find deals and run comps.Credibility: Being licensed can increase trust and credibility with sellers and buyers.Expanded Opportunities: As you mentioned, having a license opens up the option to list properties traditionally when wholesaling isn’t the best fit.Legal Clarity: Licensing helps clarify what you can and can’t do, reducing the risk of running into legal issues that plague unlicensed wholesalers.It’s a balancing act, but for many serious operators, getting licensed seems like a logical step to expand opportunities and ensure compliance.

to be clear - lots of other issues, lots of other challenges, and BRRRR is difficult right now with interest rates so high. 

They will have a lot of questions and trust issues.

@Kash Tacke I'm a big fan of ADU's in general especially here in the mid west, yes you could potentially be on the front of the wave, but housing density is the solution to the affordability issue, anytime you are investing with affordability in mind is a great strategy to me, and sound like there are some incentives or at least supporting winds form the local city, that in itself seems like it would be worth at least approaching an architect or contractor to bid up some plans or concepts to take tot he city.

@Nicholas Stout Normally when I hear landlords make the conscientious decision to "convert" their properties to Section 8 rentals, they have a real estate problem wrongly diagnosed as property management or tenant issues.

It is usually allowable up to 6 - 12 months after the purchase. 3.Buildings are determined as commercial or residential based on the official cadastral category by the local council.4.Commercial mortgage LTV Max 60% depending on the specifics. 5.Not an issue using foreign income for affordability calculations if salary is taken into account. 6.Property valuation is conducted by a valuation company requested by the bank. 7.Residential mortgages can be up to around 80% LTV depending on affordability. 8.

I would guess that you have little or no experience running any kind of STR, and now want to get that experience on the back of someone else's investment, with little or no personal skin in the game, and that's not a good way to build an investment portfolio.
