As a MF agent who spends a large amount of time calling apartment owners (or rather, numbers purporting to be apartment owners), please believe me that reaching out to random run down buildings owners is unlikely to get you any deals.

Given my circumstances, asking any of their family members to co-sign on a mortgage loan feels like a tough ask, as I wouldn’t want to place that kind of pressure on someone.

Well, apart from “if you give me $3000.”Luckily this is a co-living model through PadSplit so I have some income coming in.

Super cool apartment style living, but all one story. 

There are dozens of problems you can face as a landlord, and I feel it's important to have a plan for all of them.

I know you feel you are on top of it, and it sounds like a class A or B.

Not alot of confidence in any existing rentals as consistent indciators but I feel like so many homes are 1/2 rentals and don't tell the whole story.Anyone have any insight into the Cashiers/Highlands/Sapphire/Lake Toxaway markets to share? 

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Responding quickly, like you do, definitely makes guests feel valued and reassured.I think the choice between automation and personal interaction depends a lot on the host's availability and scale.

Hey @Alex Moazeni, feel free to PM me.
