Interestingly, it cites data from Baselane, banking built for Landlords, showing a 30% increase in landlords' monthly expenses from 2022 to 2024.

They have one of the tougher credentialing processes out there, but they have excellent data that goes deep with relatives, neighbors, associates, etc.. 

When I checked out Google Vacation Rentals when it first came out, the data was not super accurate, so I'm hoping they keep building out that aspect! 

Take a step back to look at the bigger picture of what you want to achieve and break it down into smaller, achievable steps.

Hi Dan - As others mentioned, lowering leverage can helo achieve a lower rate.

I’m currently on a mission to purchase my first investment property within the next six months, and I’m eager to learn from all of you along the way.I’ve always been fascinated by real estate and its potential for building wealth and achieving financial freedom.

This would give us 27 acres total and allow us to achieve the full scope of the property and do amazing live events here in the Ozarks.

It will become another data point and expense buyers need to consider when planning their offer in each case.

If the HELOC amount you're requesting is relatively low (often below $100,000), lenders might waive the full appraisal.Drive-By Appraisal : Instead of a full interior inspection, a drive-by appraisal involves the appraiser evaluating the exterior of the property only.Desktop Appraisal : This type of appraisal is conducted remotely using data and photos provided by the homeowner or real estate agents.Based on the little knowledge that I have about stuff like this it sounds like you need to connect with existing lenders in your network or find new lenders in your network that have programs aligned with your goals.

I don't know, maybe it's a crazy idea, but I think it's worth exploring.I've been tossing around the idea of creating a platform that integrates different data sources in a way that's actually user-friendly.
