Airbnb already became a synonymous for family vacation.

There are a lot of cheaper areas in the Midwest and South where you could take that 500K and buy either a dozen or so properties (with a DSCR) or buy a bigger multi-family.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment in Rocky Hill.

Our volunteer fire department invites surrounding departments to participate.

I’ve also seen success with titles that create an emotional connection—something like, ‘Ultimate Family Escape with Stunning Views!’

This would be more of a multi-family buy and hold play. 

I’d also look at local amenities, school districts (if targeting families), and proximity to major employers or transportation hubs.

@Jill KellerI personally owned and managed several rental properties, mainly one family, 3-families and been advised by a number of attorneys through the years to forget doing LLC's.

@Jeffery Jones As someone who owns 6 single-family homes under the Section 8 program and runs a property management company that manages over 100 Section 8 properties, I’ve learned a lot about the ins and outs of the program—not just the idealized version often shared on social media.If done correctly, Section 8 can be a great way to diversify a portfolio.

I agree that DealCheck (or the BP calculator) does not provide enough tools or functionality to analyze those types of transactions (yet).But I would argue that it does a great job at analyzing more traditional buy & hold SFRs and multi-families, as well as flips and rehab projects.
