Would love to get anyone's insight on this market and their experience investing in short term rentals in this market.

I would've rather have waited a year or 3, to buy something at a steep discount and I would've seen appreciation a short time later.

You should come to one of the Lynchburg meet ups, the next one we are touring a flip.

I wanted to see if anyone is familiar with or can recommend paid mentorship programs or coaches for small multifamily unit investing (2-4 units).In my research, I’ve found that most mentorship programs or resources I come across are geared toward large syndication apartment building purchases or other types of investments, such as short-term rentals, medium-term rentals, single-family homes, Section 8, or fix-and-flip projects.

We are in the permitting process with Delta Build right now.  

Recently, I conducted a cost segregation study on the property shortly after converting to a STR (converted June 1 2024), and I want to ensure I file my taxes correctly and legally given this change in circumstances.

Still under injunctions, but it is likely to be overturned, and you will have a short window to file.

Short-term stays tend to bring higher revenue, but long-term rentals can provide stability.If the area gets strong tourist traffic, STRs could be a great fit.

Any contractor recommendations or lender suggestions for short-term financing?

I'm ecstatic to have just secured a fantastic new short-term rental property and I'm eager to collaborate with experts to transform it into a stunning haven.
