Back when I started, I saw STR investors succeed by buying any home, furnishing it with hand-me-downs and posting photos shot with a cell phone.

They also tell you that you'll get Kris's personal cell phone number.. ha. yeah right. the guy legit never responds and when you call, it goes to a pre-recorded message that sounds soooo fake - its clearly not his real number and he doesn't get back to you with any valuable information.

There is no place that is just laying around waiting for people to waltz in and lazily do near to nothing and pickup ANY property at ANY price, ANY means and just, cash-fat-checks...... 

I'm my opinion they are both good HML providers, LendingHome was good to me and worked with me when I had no experience so that was a plus on the flip side (no pun intended), Renvo is top notch, I can reach out to Eric Workman, the  VP of lending, anytime as I have his cell phone and he typically gets back to me right away whether its text, phone call or email.

THe calls are forwarded to my cell phone and I can then move them in or assist them via remote log in to my office computer.  

So, you need to be prepared.Potential expenses to consider:Food, shelter, taxes, income taxes, fees, insurance, health insurance, medical emergencies, family, auto payments, auto insurance, utilities, cell phone, Internet, clothes, and pet care (if you have one).

The total amount of deductions I've calculated is $186,325.71 (all of the cells in yellow).

Two bedrooms in that size especially with a basement which probably has lower ceilings and not a lot of windows will look more like a prison cell/
