I do not care if he drives a Chevy, a motorcycle or walks to the shop. 

It depends. all you talked about was the property but financing is more about the borrower, their experience, their credit, the cash available etc.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

I have an idea of an initial investment and returns I would like to hit, but would love to speak with those of actual experience to see if my numbers are realistic.

With 20 years experience managing my sfr and as a property manager for a broker and a bank, this switch into ABNB has been a learning experience.  

Guests love this upsell for the experience provided, they are more likely to share on social media, you can use the decorations as marketing, build relationships with local vendors, and provide extra income for your team. 

If talking to another wholesaler, ask them questions and see if they are willing to help you from their knowledge and experience.

Has anyone else had similar experiences with BTRs?

Actual experience I'll listen to.

I post my rental listings on FurnishedFinder and Facebook (there's a couple DU living fb groups) and have had a good experience with hardly any vacancies.
