I also hope airbnb does not continue to get less host friendly.  

It probably be best as a friends-and-family type loan, but I don’t have anyone around me that is an appropriate lender.If I have to, I can put the funds in myself, but its inconvenient, and would come from investments that would need to be sold, taxed, etc.

Once you graduate and have a steady income, consider house hacking as a beginner-friendly strategy—buying a small multifamily property, living in one unit, and renting out the others to offset your mortgage.

One big thing to keep in mind is that Daytona Beach itself is not very STR friendly.

My goal is to build a data-driven tool that provides actionable insights into which neighborhoods and property types are in the highest demand, based on metrics like:Time on market: How quickly rentals are being leased.Property characteristics: Bedrooms, bathrooms, size, and amenities.Pricing trends: Rental rates relative to market demand and property features.Visual quality: Leveraging property photos to analyze the style and condition of rentals that perform well.The tool will allow users to:Pinpoint areas with the fastest rental turnovers.Understand what types of properties (size, price range, features) rent the quickest.Gain deeper insights into property presentation and amenities that correlate with high demand.Thank you in advance for your feedback.

No, you don’t need to be a TurboTenant user to sign up for Lula.

No reason not to use a top platform.Regarding the friends thing, that is dirty pool IMHO.

From there, it requires the ability to conduct underwriting the highest and best use of a planned project, which requires a pro forma built by the user or acquired from a competent 3rd party. 

I will be investing more in Wichita-I love that town & made some life long friends there.

God speed friend!
