There are also 'mezz' lenders (typically for larger transactions) who will cover up to 90% CLTV and require you to bring the remaining equity to the deal, and additionally there is Gap Funding in the form of unsecured personal debt.The latter can potentially be the most expensive option, but allows for true 100% financing as there are no restrictions for how to use these funds, as they are unsecured, and generally obtained through personal credit, income etc (since there is no collateral for obtaining these funds).

Do any of the tenants have Dogs (Breed restrictions are individual to each company).These may not prevent you from getting insurance but they may limit the number of companies willing to insure it.

There are restrictions and unhosted seem to be illegal - https://www.longbeach.gov/globalassets/lbcd/media-library/do...They say that it isn't specifically prohibited but it is banned by the omission.

They will have additional costs for mailing & online campaigns to get leads.

Many of them now have very restrictive permitting requirements.However, I have a real soft spot to Edisto Beach.

Mailing campaigns & cold calling.

I did do a precursory investigation into what requirements are and it looks like there might be some zoning restrictions, as well as permits required.

The window guideline also has a height restrictions, homes built hillside with a room on the lower level are not always considered bedrooms because if the window is too small for a fireman to get in , in case of a fire it doesn't comply with the guidelines.

@Kaaren Hall after seeing your post i called them right away, their fees are extremely high for an HSA that for the most part most people don't have a lot of money in.I max my HSA every year, but if you have a self only plan you can only put about 4k /yr  and if you have some medical bills it's less.they are also very restrictive on taking money out, and no CC to pay the doctor. prior to speaking with them I was extremely excited to see this opportunity you suggested,  but after my conversation I'm no longer...I will look for other options now that I see there may be some, so thanks so much for bringing it up.

Most of the places along the coast heavily restrict STRs.
