.- Full time maintenance, reservations, cleaning staff- Additional marketing budgets and resources.This is a brief list but a good PM can make more revenue than you can and can offset their fee. 

These need 20%-25% down, require a 680-700+ credit score, and 6 to 9 months of reserves (reserves are payments in the bank). 

The key is if someone is lending from a SDIRA to leave reserves in case the borrower defaults.  

Unless of course you actually have the money in reserves and would make up any loss.. that would be different..

Hi Zoe in Milwaukee, Wisconsin-You have $25,000 to invest and you would like to scale your portfolio efficiently and wonder what the best approach would be to do that.First off, congratulations on starting your investing journey and having $25,000 to invest.If you could find something near you with equity when you buy it, then house hacking will get you into a property with the lowest amount down--make sure to leave room for reserves and repairs in your budgeting and then refinance as soon as you can to pull money out to buy the next house the same way and keep the first and so on.If that is not possible near you because of prices or other factors, then I would look at buying a BRRRR in a market like Lansing, MI.

Our privately owned and centrally controlled monetary system, known as the Federal Reserve, and the legality of Fractional Reserve Banking is on a crash course for a battle between Freedom (Property Owners) and Royalty (the banks). 

I have done over 30k reservations and only had 1 instance of a guest causing above $10k in damage, so not sure how worth it is to pay for additional coverages. 

Reason is a Heloc generally carries a higher rate on a shorter term and "Can Never" be used as an "Asset, or for PITI reserves" which are both required when you buy an investment property. 

Those landlords that choose to artificially subsidize communities via suppressed lot rents do not generate sufficient reserves to set aside for inevitable capital improvements to the community’s infrastructure and aesthetics.

If mixed in with your deposits and reserve funds, you may accidentally spend money you shouldn't have.
