Essentially, I am betting that rates won't go low enough where it makes sense to refinance.

The main drivers1) Local Inventory2) 10 year treasury(macro)3) Personal Debt levels(macro)4) Real Unemployment(not the unemployment number but real white collar job loss ratio'd to part time jobs). 5) Industry proliferation(can't tell me a tech or finance hub moves like a health hub).To tell me #2 will derive from the same inputs as it did in Sep/Oct, I'm willing to bet it won't.

Your best bet is to find one that has flexible membership options, without high spend requirements.

Hey @Mike Pepperday, AirBNB and VRBO are your best bet to see what kind of demand there is for STRs in general.

I'll bet if you take this strategy on a forum that consists of accredited investors or qualified purchasers, you'd get laughed out immediately.

The fact its in a landbank tells me that it was taken back for some reason, which tells me its likely not a high commercial demand for development, but I could be wrong.If it is "on the main drag" in this town then I'd think doing a new build home to do a targeted and intentional air bnb would be the best bet. 

Your best bet is to read information from public blogs that approach both options objectively.

I think you're best bet for private money is going to be to network at the meetups (Red Stick REI, RING) and on FB/here.

I could have found the money I bet, but I was scared to be a landlord.

It seems like investors strongly bet on appreciation here which I dislike.
