Poof that whole model goes away.

  - There are a lot of good folks on BP who have been in the game a long time and can vouch for different QIsAs for your DIY model: you can't do 99% of exchanges on your own, the IRS won't let you. 

Seems like we may just need to do some modeling...

I’d also appreciate any tips on creating my own analysis model.

Again, that's all fine and good but the numbers have to work which is why I was hoping to speak to someone with first hand knowledge of owning a property or properties in the town without an axe to grind like the Seabrook sales people.On the issue of negative STR regulations roughly half the houses in the town are in their rental program currently so I don't see that as an issue in the future as an investor as it's baked into the town's business model and not likely to change.

I love the seller financing model because if the property is owned free and clear, there are no banks you need to deal with and for the sellers they will receive more than the negotiated purchase price once factoring in the interest payments and they can defer having to pay the capital gains.

DSCR rates and points are likely going to be competitive with the other options if you are thinking long term and don't mind slapping a 5-year prepayment penalty provision on itI think the answer to your options are clearly just model out the total cash flows and projections of each scenario and compare.

I am currently in the process of building my a new build in Cape Coral FL with them that had an all in cost of about $265, is a 4/3 model, rents estimated at $2300/mo and post construction appraisals are $377k on average for this model.

Hard pass in my mind to pay 3k to be taught how to find wholesalers and lend them Earnest money :)  Just sayin.. that is simply not a business model.

Read anything on Private Equity structures as most syndications follow those models.
