@Ryan RuppertI’m not familiar with using Shopify for a Direct STR site but I think it’s a creative way to go about it.

I always find myself getting caught up in YouTube videos, but they're never really informative.

Quote from @Chris Pontello: Hi Chris,Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm still learning creative financing solutions, but paying them some money would be if I could take over the loan.

Also, a few private lenders or hard money lenders might have some more creative terms for multifamily, especially if you're open to considering that route.

My business partner and I purchased a commercial office building a few years ago with creative financing.
