I'm considering making an offer on a 36-unit multi-family property.

Airbnb offers $3M damage protection insurance (AirCover) if guests don't pay for the damages they cause, and $1M liability insurance if a guest gets hurt or their belongings are stolen.That being said, I too do not allow instant booking or most last-minute long-term bookings out of nowhere.

A $12.5k mortgage is quite steep and ties up a lot of capital in a primary residence, while renting offers flexibility and allows more of your liquid assets to work toward generating wealth.

How do you connect with the right contacts or organizations to offer your property for mid-term rentals?

If someone made that offer to us, we would either reject it or expect the owner to get it completely right.

Another idea would be to ask if they would allow you to visit the place to see what offerings other landlords have in the area.

They taught me how to professionally engage the brokers and sellers and submit all-cash offers using THEIR cash. 

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Either way its good to buy end of year as most builders and sellers are offering seller credits or builder credits to use towards closing costs or to buy a rate down to help get a lower payment.Even if you wanted to buy a strater home like a 2-4 unit as a primary again you only need to put 5% down. 

I realize there are not many banks that offer this.
