I have had more success in finding off market properties from people who know me than any other method.

Ultimately, it depends what your goals are on which method will fit best for your situation.  

I’m interested in using private money to get started and continue using the BRRRR method as I love value add and I’m able to do a lot of the work myself.

I'm mainly interested in the BRRR method and in small multi-family, but all the strategies seem exciting to me, and I may want to try each at some point!

This method has gained popularity among developers looking to build affordable housing quickly and sustainably.Additionally, developers have diversified their portfolios by introducing new product types such as townhomes, duplexes, and triplexes.

Plenty of appraisers have little to no experience in STRs as this asset class (if one wants to even call it that) is relatively new in the REI space, and thus, the method suggested above is probably not that likely to succeed. 

The minimum six-month to two-year redemption period is also a major problem for a lender.If you don't have your own money, the best method is to raise private capital. 

I'd love to learn more engaging dialogue that can motivate property owners to seriously consider owner financing methods.

I prefer they mail a check and they do 90% of the time but if they really push the issue I use the previously mentioned methods. 

The method all depends on your personal situation and the needs of the seller.On a side note I have never paid an additional fee for a loan because the property was not done.
