I'd echo what many of the individuals who have responded already have said.

Unique pieces are great for "Flair" and individuating your property but if it fits in a suitcase and isn't fixed to the wall or floor then it will not be long for your STR.

I have a separate positive review of this individual on BP.We spent a great deal of time formulating a strategy.

You also can sell individual lots instead of all together. 

Truthfully horrified that this is an individual who wants to raise capital from others "to scale" after owning section 8 rentals for 2 years.

Financing for RenovationsSince the property needs a full gut job, consider:Hard Money or Bridge Loan: Short-term funding to acquire and renovate, then refinance with a long-term loan.Private Money Lenders: Individual investors willing to finance the deal for a fixed return.FHA 203(k) or Conventional Renovation Loans: If you qualify, these loans roll rehab costs into the mortgage.3.

As I have noted in another thread, the number of individuals who post on BP about the Huntsville market that have zero experience investing or managing properties here has accelerated recently for unclear reasons. 

A mid-term rental could be an great option during the 6-7 months you're away since it appeals to traveling professionals, remote workers, or individuals relocating and offers stable income without the constant turnover of short-term rentals.

I'm excited to be joining this incredible group of individuals.
