I'd check local STR FB groups and see if you have a local Real Estate Club.You can offer your services there, maybe for free in exchange for the experience.

@Michaela Hayes What about these projects would make it compelling for a lender to offer 100% financing?

Besides reading and listening to podcasts, my wife and I attend a local real estate investor meetup that has been extremely beneficial. 

It really comes down to your goals and time commitments.Airbnb margins have been getting tighter and it is extremely time consuming.

If you take the heloc to pay off siblings, I would still offer a big "Cash Now" discount so that they get paid quick.

For example, the insurance company offers you $100k.

As for offering subject-to financing, this is something that can be advertised under 'seller financing' in our local MLS, and there's investors that search specifically for listings with that marked, so that should introduce your property to a new set of buyers that may not have considered it before.

While Treasuries are often viewed as "risk-free" investments, certain real estate deals in today’s market offer a compelling alternative—especially when purchased at a deep discount.Take, for example, a 1,000+ unit apartment complex in a suburb near Michigan.

We stay in contact with this agent and I guess she made a couple of verbal offers for us after the agreement had expired. 

I'll add that you must manage yourself for at least a year (all four seasons, etc.) to have a real understanding of what you want done and how much you would value what is offered by STR PM.
