Due to my background in consumer lending, I am highly skeptical of paystubs and other address verification due to the widely available websites that are out there to generate forms relatively easily... so I like to verify the information by contacting the listed employer using their listed number on Google to avoid possibly calling a friend etc. 

I'm generating a lead form ABB and then I'm going to take their potential revenue for that effort...that is theft (I'm being a bit polemic, but the point is there).

It's a unique opportunity to combine my passion for real estate with hospitality, and I'm eager to dive into the process, build a portfolio, and create welcoming spaces that generate both income and experiences.

I read that I could dispute bad review in cases like this, but I also spent a lot of time and mental energy to find a middle ground.

While it’s not passive income like stocks, buying value-add properties in OOS markets has been the best wealth generator I’ve found.I also own a property management company and brokerage in Birmingham.

Many arrive at this strategy through paid mentorship, while others settle on the strategy through their own education because its such a  widely discussed strategy with so many industry participants peddling the concept thanks to the low barrier of entry and ancillary services and fees that are generated.  

You’re competing with an endless array of other investment opportunities that will generate far better return with far less risk/overhead than real estate.

I also prefer not to use a management company, as I don't want them cutting into my profits.My long-term goal is to generate enough income to live comfortably and eventually build a real estate empire.

There truly is no better way to build generational wealth than RE investing!

I did STR in a duplex starting back in 2017 and managed for others in North Conway, Ive since converted to all long term tenants and happy i did so... unless your property has something unique or a "rare" amenity.... like, sleeps 30, I honestly would not waste any energy on it in the north Conway area. so saturated, and so much big money being invested in the hotels, its tough to match amenities vs cost, and I see travelers trending back towards the hotel style accommodations. granted, for the right price, I'd buy anything and figure out what the best use for it is. use airdna.co for decent data on # of Short term rentals in any particular market. can also identify opportunities. the point of my response.... be careful in STR in any area and always have a plan B. you can change a lot of things about a property, but your cant change your basis!
