I am keen on exploring and investing in opportunities within the Dallas-Fort Worth area.I focus on identifying promising rental properties that offer strong returns and growth potential.

It's frustrating that the only thing standing in our way from fast paced growth is the seasoning period on loans, if there is any sort of way to get around it we're more than open to trying the strategy out! 

Saw the opportunity in a potential high growth market.

What are everyone’s thoughts on the best STR markets to invest in now that will experience the most growth and appreciation in 2025-26?

We actually enjoyed the experience (shout out to Johnny Reno and the Sax Maniacs), but it was just a bar, just a meal, just a new music group; not your house; so, your level of disappointment was immensely greater than ours.  

Additionally, successful investors typically build a solid network and due diligence practices to minimize potential losses.Reinvestment: Using financing means you can reinvest the profits from one project into multiple new ones, potentially accelerating your growth.

I'd say, if you aren't too far in the negative with the property's expenses and you are able to see growth in the area's future, then go for it and don't get discouraged if you face difficulties in the beginning.

A mentor can accelerate your growth, no matter what level you're currently at.

More units means more things could go wrong.So, while I agree with Greg, that if you are in growth mode and want to get to 100 or 200 or 1,000 units (although unit count is not the best measure of success) then more debt with longer amortization is going to help you get there faster.   

@Roy Gottesdiener What you don't cover is the growth potential for the six single family homes you currently own.
