The draw is actually this coming Fri for 2026The market for STR seems saturated in popular/touristic regions, however, if you have a unique property and offer affordable pricing, you may get descent occupancy. 

Sellers Get More MoneyWith wholesaling, sellers often need to take a low cash offer.

Purchase price: $162,500 Cash invested: $75,000 I was offered this property directly before it went on the market from my agent.

Preforeclosure, Pre-Probate, tax liens are  OK -- however most seasoned and newbie investors are calling these leads as well and making offers.   

(Their offerings are now on a portal called “Swell”)One of the current offerings is a loan to a developer in Denver, offering 11% and maturing in Aug 2025.

I've self managed property for a long time and I belive that no manager does as good a job of managing as I do. 

If the income requirements are met, credit looks good, and employment history ( at least 6 months +) at the same job, move forward with the applicant and request additional deposit.That's an old eviction IMO.I have a current tenant that I leased to with low 500 credit.

Joining investor meetups in your area can also help you build relationships with experienced investors who may offer mentorship or even potential partnerships.Finally, don’t underestimate the power of letting people know your plans.

It will also allow you to focus more of your time and resources in the actual real estate vs. raising capital which usually leads to poor real estate acquisition and operational decisions because raising capital is your full time job leaving an inadequate amount of time for the real estate.OK, chasing 32unit apartments, acquisition priced between 3.2M - 4.8M.  

I left my job 2 years ago to help me and sister build a online business.
