Hi everyone, I have a property in Swannanoa that was affected by the hurricane. I have Proper insurance, tailored to short term rentals. As many STRs in the area, I have been dealing with cancellations and loss of rev...

Come on up to Black Hawk County tonight!

This vapor barrier may be a dark blue or black color, and should stretch along the entire underside of the manufactured home.Inspect the vapor barrier to be sure that there are no signs of sagging, rips, or delamination.

A third friend of mine was looking on the web and saw some "deals" in Cape Coral. 

I blacked out the price and sent it to two other companies for them to give me a quote (not knowing how much I had already been quoted.)

I'm sixty years old and was toying with the idea of investing some of my retirement money in a home on Cape Cod.    

It was always....black swan event, interest rates never went this high, no one foresaw this, insurance and taxes are through the roof, not our fault.

Don't get sucked in to borderline applicants, make it as black and white as you can so you can approve or turn down with confidence. 

I am under contract on an A-Frame to STR in Black Mountain, NC (if it survived the storm) and I couldn't use the DSCR for STR because they messed up 2023 after crushing 2022 on Airbnb.I am at 30% down, 1.75 points, 6.875% with no prepayment penalties - $1,644/month.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the first-time investor isn't looking to spend $2M and be in the black $1,000/mo or more.Secondly, and most importantly, you can NOT get an STR in Breckenridge (or Keystone, another option in your response).
