The one big hesitation we have is that it seems like you can not deed the title into an LLC (for asset protection).

We only have 30-40K down payment and are hesitant about 2 things:1) Investing into a property purely for STR... we would want to ensure it can still pay for itself as an LTR if need be PLUS ideally we would not invest more than 350-400K.

Quote from @Brandon Rush: Hey team,I'm looking into buying a property in ATL and using it as a Padsplit because I love the potential to make greater returns with their rent-by-the-room model.The big hesitation for me is that they screen and place tenants, but don't manage evictions. 

I would be very hesitant to pay off anything with such a low rate - the sub 4% rate I wouldn't touch. 

Also removing myself from a W-2 causes some hesitation.

If there is anything else you need to know, don't hesitate to ask.Dwayne

The deeper issue behind analysis paralysis may be some underlying fear, hesitation, and/or anxiety that you have to uncover and work through.

I just started working with THD, I had the same situation as Shankar RamaniI had a 3/2 SFH posted for LTR, they reached out asking if I am open to short term rental, I was hesitant first but after searching the company and their business model, I was willing to take the risk if they pay me a good premiumThe person who reached out to me works with the insurance side of THD ( they have corporate leasing department too), and her tenant had a fire damage in their house so the insurance company wanted the tenant to stay somewhere until the house repair is done.

Folks appreciate enthusiasm and genuine curiosity.A friend of mine, Alex, felt the same hesitation but decided to give it a shot.
