You can close in an LLC and don't need to provide employment history, income or tax returns, and DTI isn't a factor.

I find the toughest part to be finding your own deals.

My goal is to stabilize, refinance within 3-5 years, and offer strong returns to lenders.Your point about targeting SDIRA investors and high earners is interesting—how do you typically find and connect with these types of lenders?

Be sure to check out the free tools BP provides to help analyze deals you may have and also market insights.

Many of the local agencies collaborate with each other to help each other’s buyer clients find furnished MTRs and this is how I’ve been finding tenants for my MTR’s this year.

If you decide to revisit STRs, you might want to explore properties where you can project expenses independently, such as using local STR forums or online tools to estimate maintenance, management, and occupancy costs.For networking and strategy-building, you might find local meetups or groups beneficial.

However, there’s a catch—I’m looking to partner with an investor to help provide the capital needed to complete the deal (would need to raise around $200,000-500,000).

I will be talking to him Monday, or possibly today if I find time at work.

Anything I find useless, so they don’t need to chase me. 

Finding properties to me is about 5-10% of the work in closing a property.
