Hello everyone,I just closed on a house and am exploring the possibility of turning it into a mid-term rental.

I have done my underwriting for 2 years with zero near term appreciation. 

Quote from @Joe Gellenbeck: Hi All,I am new to this community and real estate investing in general, but I'm excited to jump in.

Hi all,I am a young newbie investor looking to make my first real estate purchase in 2025.

The picture they have on Zillow vs one of the several I have with the same view:I don't know who your current PMC is, but I had to switch from my initial one in Warren, MI as it was taking too long to get a renter placed. 

I'd rather keep the sub-3% rate for now and finance other properties conventionally for the short term.

Hey all,I have been listening to Bigger Pockets content for maybe 4 years and finally have removed myself from some side hustles, have the capital, and grew the...brains to start real estate investing.QUICK BIO:I am based in New Jersey, I work as a marketing/efficiency consultant, and have 2 avenues of real estate investing:Short-Term Rentals: I have 3 short-term rentals using my parents apts in NJ ( 1 of them just launched in Nov) for the past 2yrs near NYC (1 of them just launched in mid-Nov).

It may work in the long term but can be a painful process.i wish the OP the best and i believe he can benefit by recognizing the value in the various responses but seems unwilling.  

My idea to achieve this is to convert the studio into a short-term rental.I’m trying to determine if I’m forcing this deal to work by relying on the short-term rental strategy or if it’s a reasonable approach given the numbers.

Sometimes a 5-10 unit DSCR loan is solid terms, but I'm quoting 7.4% ish for 5+ unit, DSCR.
