Private lending using retirement funds is my personal favorite (I've done a few dozen loans like this) for the following reasons: passive, low risk, and high returns.

Can't believe I've been reading Rich Dad books for years before ever hearing about Bigger Pockets via David Greene books (BRRRR and Long-Distance RE Investing).

I would check and see how many 1 bed and 2 bed options there are and what they are priced at because most folks will prefer the full place to themselves so rooming 2 people together could make getting bookings a bit more difficult (not always the case but something to consider)

Our STR properties have been fully booked since March through 2021.

Just taxes will be 20k.I would run numbers like this:Property 1.5 million (minimum)Construction (Cheap end) 2.14 mHolding Costs (at least 150k)In my book, even according to your calculation, that means you put in at least (those numbers are on the low end): 3.8m! 

Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.Here's a guide that teaches you how to analyze a property.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/rental-property-cash-flow...Finding deal that cash flow is the easy part.

You can even connect with local HR teams and offer small referral bonuses to get more bookings.

She also just wrote a book for BP as well https://store.biggerpockets.com/products/self-directed-ira-i...

Only enroll in coaching if you've read a handful of multifamily investing books that has given you a baseline.

I definitely agree that it's so easy to fall in the trap of paralysis analysis and reading books and listening to podcasts.
