You have to attract interested parties that are willing to sell you their property cheaply because they need to vacate ownership for one reason or another.

This will go a long way in creating a network and future sellers and buyers will start to see you as a resource in this arena.  

Especially if you have an owner finance buyer.

Most foreign buyers are high net worth individuals who want to park their money there in a safe haven and they don't need BP.No restrictions apply to American buyers in the countries they'd generally want to buy, including those mentioned by Federico and many other popular countries.When it comes to Spain specifically, some more conservative banks will ask you for a 40% downpayment (that would be the maximum) but that isn't the rule.

In many of these financings, the buyer paid a purchase price based at least partially on the increased cash flow generated by the property being “proven” as a successful STR.  

That kind of net worth can go a long way if you’re trying to make a move.And that’s part of the reason why the share of all-cash buyers recently reached a new high.

The irony is that this might actually attract more unscrupulous out of state investors. 

I'm an agent and investor and about 80% of my buyer clients all house hack.

I realize this comes with the STR business but if I'm going to continue to use VRBO I need to find away to attract the "good" guests and minimize the bad ones.

No longer can buyers underwrite to $1,000/unit payroll and $250/unit insurance expense.
