I enjoy all the hurdles, negativity, and personal attacks I get on my hunt to find deals.

Looking for a STR but have some hurdles to get over first.

I work with a lot of them and I have to say most are quite unreasonable because they believe the kool-aid that media spits out to grab eyeballs; few look at raw data.

The only hurdle is that she would still have the Debt and payments show up on her credit report when she goes to buy the next home. 

The hurdle for me will be finding someone to manage the properties as I am located on the east coast.

We are looking into self managing it but there is a big hurdle in that the HOA doesn't allow lockboxes or smart locks on the doors.

You will need debt to grow a real estate portfolio and using debt wisely will help you create more passive income.I know its a hurdle and a big mind shift at times, I experienced it my self when I was getting started. 

A lot of them tying up properties at unreasonable prices. 

The biggest challenge is finding quality operators - and the best way to overcome that hurdle is to be part of a Community. 

I know it comes with the territory and we do 300-500 reservations per month so the law of averages apply but people demanding a 50% refund because the wifi went out for 2 hours after a Florida summer thunderstorm and then trashing your review because they did not get their unreasonable request granted is the worst.
