Mold requires moisture to survive.

Happy to meet up with you and share my many years experience as an investor and networking with other investors and parting my wisdom.

Hi @Dylan Fraembs and welcome to Bigger Pockets and real estate investing!

Is there a better way to find out how many existing units are there in each town, or do I need to drive to each facility and ask?

Try to narrow it down to your top 3-4.

I have spoken with them a few times, they are unconcerned, and happy to have me just pay the interest every month until it converts.

Purchase price: $380,000 Cash invested: $135,000 Annual rental to be turned into STR when tenant vacates What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Quote from @Simone Montague-Jackson: You can house hack with up to four units.

Holding this for 1 month (hoping that's enough to refi) that's $5k.So my aim is to save money overall by making a cash offer and close it soon.

You could tell them to cancel the listing and you will find someone else to list it after a month not 4 months (the market take is subjective too, all dependent on what your house has compared to others, where it is located, the size of it, and so many other factors).
