I may not even go the partnership route but I am interested in just learning about all the options I have. 

@Joshua MartinSince you might sell next year, a HELOC is probably the better short-term option—lower upfront costs and flexibility to pay it off when you sell.

I know of several DSCR and portfolio lenders who offer different terms based upon your situation.

Since I’ll be doing both STR & MTR on the same condo, would regular long term rental insurance be fine along side with the VRBO/air BnB insurance that they offer ?

I haven’t received the quote back for this place yet, but other similar properties we offered on were in the $4k/year range for insurance.

Fishtown and Point Breeze are strong options but can be pricey.

The property sat on the market for a month before an offer came in, but the buyer backed out at closing.

With the right resources and help, you can still make it happen.There are options that can help make buying a home possible today — even if your savings are limited or your credit isn’t perfect.

Your property is similar to mine in great Indianapolis suburb with good schools owned since 2013 - worth about $300,000 (possibly could get a little more if in a multiple offer situation), property tax $6249.

You really to examine your options with everything and be very choosy who you let run it for you!!!
