Roger that @Brandon Vukelich, but I don't see lenders adding STR revenue to the actual property valuation in the future.

Just remember you are spending time and money to improve a space that isn't yours and you're not able to take the improvements when you leave, ownership should have some skin in the game especially in a new build.   

@TJ Woolum - save your money (many will be glad to take it), rather invest your time and energy  to connect with the right people!

As you know in many real estate deals, the money is made at the buy.Personally, I'm focused on off-market deals where we can create value.Curious—how did you frame your offer to get them to drop without hesitation?

They claim that their clients are seeing a large return on their investment but would love to hear from somoene who has actually worked with them. 

If we move forward with transferring the deed, we would like a way to guarantee to my father and my sister: a) some return from investments made with money taken out of the house, and b) equal shares in the house if we sell in the future, or a buyout path for either of them.3.

The problem is, none of it is based on actual comps, and again, the word "cute" doesn't have anything to do with setting those numners.What you need to do is a full analysis of the comps for both rent and sold in your area. 

Most can't and that's where money is often spent unnecessarily.

What you do to provide actual safety to guests is going to be key.  

For example, if you're planning a kitchen remodel, get multiple quotes to ensure you have a solid grasp of what it will actually cost.3.
