@Preet Oberoi Purchasing a short-term rental (STR) or tiny home to offset W-2 income with depreciation can be effective if structured correctly.

I found a few that I liked and Melissa was able to help me quickly identify which ones were best for me and proceed with the purchasing process.

@Wade Wisner -  Most of the notes that we purchase we keep in our portfolio and borrow against them with private capital.

I've found an off-market property that would require $175k purchase, $35k down, $20k in repairs, with a conservative ARV of $235k. 

For an investment property (purchased as an owner occupant), that is insane. 

What this leads to is higher purchase prices but also higher rents in these areas. 

This, in turn, allows for higher rental rates or quicker sales, directly impacting the ROI.I could remember when an investor purchased an old, three-story commercial building at  a bustling downtown area.

Purchased as an asset sale in October 2019 as a buy/hold investment.

If you are coming in with 235k, you probably would not need much more, if any, to make the purchase.

I’m looking to raise $160,000 to cover the purchase, renovation, and activation of this new Airbnb property.
