Don't get too caught up in it however, as a lot of them have APIs to transfer properties over if you want to jump later on.Food for thought: some of these platforms have a minimum for units.

For outbound, you’ll need to get lists of addresses and tons of data from platforms that pull county records on a daily basis like bathleads and propstream so you can filter those records more easily by potential motivation indicators like foreclosure, eviction, probate, etc.

I've seen lines of credit on WSJ Prime, Prime, COFI index, Treasure maturity indexes, Libor, and many others.A popular 1st lien HELOC primary is a primary and secondary residence product (non investment properties) and it can go up to 75-80% LTV which doesnt sound too high, but the max loan amount is 2,000,000 vs typical HELOC (home equity lines of credit) that cap out at 350-500k.

I'm not in that area so I don't any particular Facebook groups but you should be able to find the most popular just by looking around on FB. 

Airbnb is just one of many listing platforms to list your STR.
