Definitely not easy, and in Seattle, it's been competitive -I've lost out on the last two offers.

You will stand out from the competition and the incremental costs will be recouped quickly in your low vacancy numbers…  good luck

The MFH market is very competitive and deals go QUICK!

I use a lender that oonly requires one day of seasoning so that I can refi as soon as the rehab is completed into a long term, fully amortizing loan.Cassidy, are you seeing competitive rates with this type of loan?  

Buying in Huntsville now is very competitive.  

Are these loan terms competitive?

A quick note on STR, the market is competitive here and pretty saturated with rentals in town(specifically those not on the beach). 

If most of your competition has a pool, I'd go that route and try to add something indoors like a game room.

As many have said, there are pros and cons to both short- and medium-term rentals, but I've found that Nashville is still a competitive market for each! 

Nonetheless, it is frowned upon, competitive, and it's not something you should do alone.
