Good morning/evening Everyone,I am located in Columbus Georgia, and I am new to the Bigger Pockets community.

All that means is you've got bring your best to all aspects of the property and the listing itself -- location, furnishings, photography, heck, even the listing headline all matter a lot.At the risk of pitching here, my wife's YouTube is filled with a ton of great MTR content on setting up a listing.

We bought a foreclosure and are living in it currently and are making it our forever home due to the location.

Are you located in DFW area?    

Used redfin to locate the deal.

The house is located in a relatively nice neighborhood near universities and plaza.

Quote from @Michael K Gallagher: Quote from @A Rao: I invest in land and have done entitlement/zoning and other DD work successfully for years.A broker called me this morning on a property I have on a busy interesection and has a QSR client who likes the location, but does not want to do a ground lease, only a build to suit. 

I have a a great project in a prime location, but finding the right investor has been pretty difficult. 

I am of the opinion that the best STRs are properties that don't compete with hotels - meaning that they are 4-5 bedrooms for large groups or have a unique location/setting. 

If this was your current situation (paid off house in my location) and had less than stellar credit, what would you strategy be to scale quickly but sustainably?
