That’s the vibe they give off.And I don’t really get it, as I’ve been paying these three loans for 7 years, without any incident of any kind, ever.

If any need for boots on the ground ever exists for you, I would be happy to assist or brainstorm.

Hi @Sandra H Kopper - Did you ever go with a DST? 

Quote from @Brandon Foster: Hello Ryan,STR is do able in the north county area but there are a lot of rules and regulations.The city of Oceanside right now will not allow anything STR unless it’s west of pacific coast hwy.This is changing a lot too so you need to be aware of that in your plans.Carlsbad is super strict too but there are some condos that are still available to do STR in.Medium term rentals are as safer bet but way less profitable.

This is something that can easily be changed later if needed.

If you ever have questions or want feedback on a plan, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help.

Did you change strategies on one of your properties?

I'm 44, a licensed barber, and own the first house I ever bought outright.

To scale successfully you have to get past the point where your newly increased expenditures exceed your increased revenue; past the point where your ROI allows you to “break even” on your investment, and past the point where the ROI is worth the increased risk, the increased aggravation, time, and “lifestyle” change, and past the point where you can step back from “operations” and concentrate on management.  

They said, "that is exactly how this works but you won't ever find a bank that will do what you're asking without a security agreement giving us (the bank) lien on the property."
