Some folks have already given good advice, and I want to add a quick tip for how to get data on potential STR properties.

There are a lot of high character folks who get sucked into garbage Co-GP style guru programs.

That is I think it is more aligned with the fact that above average (in price) houses don't make good rentals--so these folks primary hold houses which are below the average price in the areas they operate.What do y'all think?

As an investor-friendly agent based in New Jersey, I’ve seen folks leverage a strong network (like probate attorneys, local wholesalers, or even specialized divorce attorneys) to find properties that don’t always pop up in public listings.

I wanted to connect with any folks with connections in the Prescott area!

Happy new year, folks! 

Anthony, welcome aboard.. it’s always exciting to see new folks exploring the world of real estate investing!

I love and use Triumph Construction - they're amazing. and looking to add a couple more folks for my contracts, such as HVAC, Electrician, and Plumber.

Lots of folks are pulling out cash based on the appraised value for their next projects and holding for a few years to benefit from appreciation. 

The credit thing should not be an issue for many DSCR folks like myself. 80% ltv may be an option, but,I have seldom found the tradeoff in cost/rate to be worth it in the last 12 months. 0% origination is possible, but, as others have said compensation is received in one fashion or another (higher rate, processing fee, etc.).
