I have 0 experience managing STR properties, but lots of experience using Airbnb from my travels 😅 I am halfway reading Avery Carl’s book on STR.

Hey Cade ,My name is Cade, and I specialize in optimizing Airbnb listings to attract more guests and increase bookings. 

I currently have about $30,000 I am planning to invest and I don't have any student debt, credit card bills, or "real" expenses (I live at home).

My spouse and I just went through all of that a couple months ago and ended up ditching Armed Forces Insurance to go with State Farm.

I graduated from college in May, and I am currently doing business development (sales) for a property management company while studying for my RE license.

I love the idea and I would like to analyze deals using a variety of strategies and model each strategy out, however I am struggling when it comes to the rubber meeting the road for analyzing the deals.For example, I would like to analyze deals in a single spreadsheet for various strategies such as seller financing, subto, traditional lender, external investor, etc. etc. 

Using simple numbers, assume I want to purchase a $100,000 property using crypto as collateral:- I pay the closing costs with cash- I put down 10% down payment with cash ($10,000) - I utilize a crypto mortgage for the remaining 90% ($90,000) This way, I still keep my crypto and I have a property, both of which may accrue in value over the long-term.

Know all your numbers very well and I would suggest padding time on market and your sales price.
