Can I explore an option of getting the regular mortgage for a part of the balance?

Your insights and recommendations would be invaluable as I explore these avenues.When I'm not immersed in real estate, I enjoy traveling, listening to music, and cooking.

@Mike Ghajari - Happy to help you keep exploring OKC when the time is right.

Caveat to OP...find a lawyer to work with what the particular rules are in your specific county, and if they are any different, or if there are any caveats here regarding your obligations that we are not exploring. 

Have you explored those?

Quote from @Madhul Shah: I live in New York and I'm 22 years old.I'm interested in starting to invest in real estate and am still new to the process.I have been exploring STR deals around the country.However, my question is if someone has access to a substantial amount of capital, would it make sense to invest in LTR's?

@Neal PatelRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder, etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I’m planning to buy more with them but also exploring other options with a local realtor so I have more choice on properties and locations.  

Not sure if a local bank may be better than FHA, or are there other avenues that I should explore?

This has set me once again down the path of exploring platforms, one of which is RentRedi.
