If that's the case, you'll want to start with a fix and flip (or hold) type of loan, complete your renovations, get it rented out and THEN refinance into a DSCR loan for a long term hold. 

I figured my network of people I help/work for, will help in the long run. 

Off-market deals give you control over pricing, terms, and creative financing options.

Their behavior definitely got worse during this current, second lease term.

Quote from @Ben Wisan: Hi all,I am newer to this website and community.quick question for everyone.

I think we will see more "adult" families living together...kids move back in or parents move in with kids.The traditional apartment model was based on 12month leases, but jobs are not always 12 months and people want flexible terms, so co-living often offers that.Seems like younger people between 20-30 and some other age groups don't want to get married and start that housing pathway our parents and grandparents took.   

I’m finding a hard time finding comps for a long term rental.

The sale of our home will provide us with approximately $150,000 to allocate toward investments.At this stage, we feel most comfortable focusing on long-term rentals.

Since you already have experience with both short-term and long-term rentals, house hacking a duplex could be a smart next move.

As long as the property cash flows, that's what is mainly needed.
