I hope this helps and good luck in your journey!

We typically have a specific criteria of contingencies we are putting into place within the purchase and sales agreement to help protect our investor clients from many of the issues that arise when inherenting tenants.

Consider reaching out to a local Rental Owners Association to connect with experienced hosts, gain valuable insights, and access resources that can help you navigate property management more effectively.

keep going after it. run lots of numbers and do a lot of underwriting. feel free to reach out at any time if you need help in your market. these properties that are 3 units are rented and then a cash out refinance that not only makes money but returns full capital to the investor on DSCR loans similar to the interest rate you mentioned above. 

(and I would definitely support paying the $149 for listing on FF)Beyond FF, Airbnb and ALE, it's going to take time and leg work, and which platform will depend on your market.

I am looking to buy a property in SLC Utah that i would want to try and run as a STR to help offset the cost.

Perhaps in a few months, a refi will help you pull out more of the invested capital.

Get a good real estate attorney and have them help you navigate this.

If you need help, DM me, and I’ll point you in the right direction!

Perhaps I could help with some recommendations for other contractors to bid on the roof and foundation or even a new property manager.
