The proceeds could be reinvested into something with better returns or even used to simplify your finances(Like Bettment still offer 4.75% for new customers, and you don't need to do anything!).

I believe I hear what you are saying though, for sure -- that it's better, more fair, and more likely to get deals, if you yourself can show up to the table offering something.... in hard cashbut you still have to know how "fix and flip" works, how to renovate something, how to negotiate.... what contracts to do, how long things take.... etcthat was the concept I liked about Gator, is that it's a team that passes that niche off to the other person, who is good at that - and they can all structure deals together.... you have the deal guy.... the money guy.... the fix and flipper guy, etc. -- and they find deals that could be good for all of them - and everyone is helping each otherI think BiggerPockets will be a potentially pretty reliable place - I know that there's different roles, "finders", "buyers", "sellers".... maybe I can just find deals, and connect people together, and get some kind of small finder's fee for it, or something.... ok so that first 10-20k is important to just be able to provide - when getting into this....

A few others have called out Hemlane, who appear also quite responsive here on BP and also offer a degree of repair/work order management baked right into their middle/upper tier offerings (versus having to bolt-on as with RentRedi + Latchel). 

The draw is actually this coming Fri for 2026The market for STR seems saturated in popular/touristic regions, however, if you have a unique property and offer affordable pricing, you may get descent occupancy. 

If you really want to get rid of them, sweeten the pot by offering to return their deposit after you verify the unit is empty with no damages. 

Hi @Kyle McCorkelLooking at Palmyra currently, and actually just submitted an offer on a possible STR.

Over the years, I’ve learned that offering tiered returns can be a win-win strategy—it rewards investors for their level of commitment while helping us maintain flexibility in our business.

The number of DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loans a lender will offer can vary depending on the lender, your financial situation, and the property cash flow.
