I think this totally depends on the investor and how many projects they are doing in a given year.

It is not your credit score but generally better credit will result in a better score- Time at your job- Education level- time at current residenceGood Luck & feel free to PM me if you have any questions. 

we are experiencing something similar with a property in western nc. its a large investment home, in a good area. we offered it at 100 per sqft . we have not had the attention it should have . i assumed it was due to storms , elections, interest rates. i could be wrong we may pull it from the market and finish it.

I was just on their website looking at the permit process:CityofSac-STR PermitLooks like 90 days max until you get a conditional use permit but still reading as it seems a little unclear:A short-term vacation rental may operate from a location that is not the operator's primary residence for a total of 90 days in a calendar year.

A little about me for context: I live in a very expensive market in Rye,NY. 

I found a house that I like to purchase in a great neighborhood and the exterior looks great for a 1922 stick built house.

For another business I run I do post daily accountability in a FB/mentorship group and that does help me stay on track.

Especially in a high interest rate environment where cash flows on long term rentals are muted and there is significant capital required to purchase and list on airbnb.I live near NYC but would invest out of state in an airbnb / landlord friendly state.

We do want to settle in a little bit here while continuing to do our homework, but hope to get into something in the next 6-12 months.With the way interest rates are looking now and what little I see on public listings, I think a smaller multi-family that needs a little rehab would be the best bet. 

I recently took a leap of faith and invested in a mentorship program with Tom Zeeb and his Total Traction Real Estate Mentors program.
