If you are referring to design, amenities, stocking and renovation, I have plenty of experience!

But we both are determined, have an eye for design, and enjoy the learning process. 

Hi Ali, The good news is because you have experience there are loan products designed especially for investors that require NO personal income or tax returns.

If you turn this property into a STR - do you have a budget for design, amenities, and furnishings?

I should have my plans from my designer soon and I will show them the plans.  

My husband and I renovated and designed the condo ourselves, traveling back and forth from Cincinnati to Gatlinburg over the course of about 4 months.

More valuable IMO is a real estate designation like a CCIM or SIOR etc. especially if you are focusing on a career as a RE agent.

Right now we are in the process of working with our architect to design the layout.

This project allows me to bring that vision to life, combining innovative design with How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Looking into ground up development for single story climate control self storage facilities in my market and looking for some general guidance on design & cost rule of thumbs - any help would be greatly appreciated.
