Beautiful renovation and design choices!

McElhannon: I'm curious on peoples go to approach to secure financing for an investment property - use a broker? 

You have an STR listed on the Airbnb platform.Why not look at the design of highly sucessful STR'S in your area and copy some of the best ideas?

@Kana Watanabe I have seen @Christopher J Driscoll Designs for his ADU and they are amazing, He has gone through the process of speaking with a lot of GC's in the area so hes a great resource for all of the above.

I’ve developed a Comprehensive Investor Report (CIR) for a property in Palm Coast, FL, designed to be transformed into a luxury rental asset while serving as the foundation for a scalable asset management strategy.Here’s a quick snapshot of the deal:Property: Red Birch Lane, Palm Coast, FLCurrent Value: $350,000+Mortgage Balance: $165,000Current Equity: $185,000Investment Required: $177,500 (for luxury upgrades and optimization)Projected Monthly Rent: $4,500 with 2% annual increasesTarget ROI: Full 1.5x ROI for investors achieved in 9 yearsLuxury Features: Smart home automation, designer finishes, professional-grade kitchen appliances, and more.I’ve also structured a capital distribution plan with a waterfall approach:8% Preferred Return for investors.Full Return of Capital to investors before profit splits.Post-ROI, a 20/80 split (Investor/Management) ensures long-term alignment.

@William Bohan, Yeah, being a CA resident you'll have to do a 1031 exchange or your tax will approach 40%. 

I did find this deal driving driving for dollars, the realtor of the property was adding his sign in the front yard, I approached to make and offer. we close in 3 weeks.

It sounds like an incredible resource, for $200 having a fully designed materials and fixtures schedule to pair with a labor only GC or a GC that can work well with a prescriptive materials schedule. https://ivoryhome.co/predesigned-packages/Just curious how other people’s experience has been.

Curious to hear any creative approaches that have worked in today's market.ARV and future value are speculative so when I am looking at property I am looking at it for longer term - does it fit within my strategy based on conservative estimates.

Because of that success, and the tourism of Santa Fe, I'm assuming a STR will likely out preform a LTR with modern amenities, design, etc in place.
