It is my belief that if we pulled only those with 8 digit and more RE assets, the appreciation wins hands down.  

I hear LLC, no LLCs but umbrella policies and keep pulling out equity to help with asset protection.  

My question is, for the unit I am moving out of, what’s the best company to use for online applications, tenant screening, background checks, credit pull, etc. ?

I haven't seen this pulled off.  100% strangers living under one roof, what could possibly go wrong LOL.

I don't know what the ratio is, I'm just pulling that number out of thin air.

How's the STR competition and do you have a sense of what you would pull in with ST v LT?

Logan Allec , wait for a nice day, pull off the old one, go to Home Depot or Lowes, find one that matches or ask for someone's help.

This would avoid dealing with traditional lenders altogether.Partnership: Consider bringing in a partner who can provide the $140K in exchange for a share of the rental income or future appreciation.Cash-Out Refinance: If you have another property, you might be able to do a cash-out refinance to pull out the necessary funds.Best of luck!

Curious, did you pull the trigger on this? 

@Jason Babos did you end up pulling the trigger?
