Between the two major players of trade shows this is my preference. 

If you hang out in the forums long enough you'll start to know who the bigger players in the space are.

Before engaging with Airbnb rentals get legal advice and do your research.

Arbor, Greystone, and ReadyCap are the other big players in that space.

I think tax liens as an engagement device is good.  

The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent." this was a very very real scenario that caught many a developer in a pickle or syndicator or what have you.Ken Harter in Oregon was the largest player in the senior housing space he needed to refi in 09 about 1b or more in loans that had the 5 year calls... 

Ideally, in a BRRRR strategy, goal is pull as much cash out as possible, or even have no cash invested at all after the refi, but since this deal may require keeping some of my capital engaged, not a perfect BRRRR strategy, but still offers a good ROI from an "equity gain" perspective and also from a cash-on-cash flow perspective ($350+ per month).

The big players don't discount rent traditionally, they can't afford to. 

Until that point, I am here to read / listen and learn.I am likely looking to purchase in my area (Pittsburgh) and have some ideas about what neighborhoods specifically, but these are just instincts and purely anecdotal in any event, so I would love to engage in discussions about what areas around here would work for the buy and hold rental income strategy.Thanks!

Watch out for people that sound like A-players during a 15-20 minute intro call, but struggle to answer follow up questions specific to your needs.
