They often have connections with furniture providers that can get better-priced products and they will be able to work with the photographer on how to get your photos to pop.

I would make sure that One Brokerage has the correct loan product for what you are attempting.

As for renting, going cash flow negative isn't great, and your home isn't likely to appreciate as fast as it would if it was a single family home, so holding with hopes of increasing appreciation may be a verrrry slow play, but if you can afford to hold, having a tenant pay down your mortgage is an additional great benefit to real estate investing. 

Plenty of cash flow for any errors.Even our product mix and locations we do risk management up front.  

Those offers never came, one was supposed to be from an affordable housing nonprofit that had access to 4.5% financing, but they put us on ice for a few months while we waited for their slow board aproval process, and then they had some sort of organizational staffing shakeup and recently told us they couldnt put an offer in.

There is a marked slowing in the time it takes to rent a home and the overall rental market is cool now.I have not heard of a flat fee for a rental listing, but there's a couple things you can consider to help your situation.You can go back to your previous property manager and see if they would be willing to solely do the listing and lease up for you. 

Based on what you are saying it causes me to question whether or not the end product has the value that you see in it.

@Gino Barbaro I have contacted a couple of mortgage brokers the only products they are offering are actually worst terms than commercial HELOC options with rates around 10.5, where with the residential I am currently getting right around prime rate.

Other ideas I've seen include taking white label products and putting your STR branding on them to sell.  

This loan product has a VA inspection during your appraisal (nothing scary).
