I personally would stay away from condo-tels as they will be even worse and you'll have less opportunity to cash flow. 

That’s a lot of cash.

I know I can't have it all but looking for a stable appreciating with some cash flow and a turnkey SFH.

I know that i could buy my next multi family property as a primary residence close by move in, rent half live in the other and than rent where i am now which would cash flow upwards of 1k monthly, or i could buy another multi as strictly an investment property out of state which would be a lot cheaper (taxes and cost of property) and a lot more landlord friendly laws than New York, i guess i’m just undecided on which route i want to take and I’m trying to weigh the pros and cons of each scenario.

He is great with investors and can find deals that cash flow much easier, including some off market stuff.

My primary focus is on maximizing cash flow.Does anyone has experience with STRs in Aspen, I’d love to hear your advice or insights!

Cash flow has been hampered by an increase in cost of ownership recently, specifically insurance. 

We are BRRRRing it and we’re originally going to rent traditionally, however we decided to look into it as an Airbnb, and when we put in current loan rates which will be near or at 7% when we are ready, we’d only cash flow about $150 a month 😱, but as an Airbnb our projections are around $1,300 cash in our pockets monthly. 💰 At this point is a no brainer 🧠 and we know if it doesn’t work out or we don’t like doing it we can always revert to a traditional rental. 

Are they going in all cash or financed?
