I think novice operators are trying go too heavy on amenities to compete with the big boys/girls/people and they can't do it as well because they don't have the operational experience.Consistency is the key for new operators and that goes for quarterly photo updates, dynamic pricing, and communication.Too many people got into the space in the past three years who thought of STRs as passive income when that is just silly.

The main players in this space are Guidance Residential and UIF, but it turns out that they may just be purchasing a Freddie/Fannie loan on the back end to finance the deal and then structure it differently for the buyer - which isn't in accordance with their religious rules. 

In the DSCR space, every 1% you paid in origination, brought the rate down by half-a-percent (with most lenders).

As luck had it the Marines decided I should deploy for 7 months, I guess they knew she needed space.

I'm looking for advice on this topic and also recommendations for companies that work in this space.

Either work but in Metro Atlanta, the easier option is an SFR with roommates or potentially separating the basement as a separate lease space. 

Negativity can weigh you down faster than a rucksack full of rocks.When you distance yourself from it, you create space for growth and success.

The duplex units are each two-bedroom, 1.5 baths with a one-car garage and just under 1,000 sq feet of finished space.
