Couldn't agree more with @John Corey but beware of "asset protection" attorneys trying to sell you overly complex and costly solutions.For me and my wife we have a holding co that invests however it's more for accounting than anything else.

After being a landlord of 4 doors for years, my wife and I decided on selling our property in the insanely hot Colorado market, and we set out on a road trip to find our new home.

Hi James, I am super happy with the Lodgify platform and am using it for co-hosting clients as well. 

And correctly..you cannot co sign as a primary if it's occupied..2+ units can sometimes require larger down payment (as you've found) another option could be to access equity against another property..check in with @Joseph Chiofalo for potential lower down payment options..might be able to get to 15% down..Good luck! 

We are interested in investing, its not a syndication, they invest in individual homes.Below is the co founder;Rosario TerraccianoCo-Founder & COO, Realtor—

I have a local property manager that is co-host on the AirBnb listing that will continue to manage the property.

Thankfully for him, he still could get into the deal as a co-investor.There could be exceptions but do you want to base a business model on exceptions.

That makes them more viable for larger places but still they take a while to do a complete load.Here is Yale Appliances blog on the 2 for comparison - https://blog.yaleappliance.com/ge-profile-ultrafast-vs-lg-co...I see these as a way to get a unit in a very tight space.
