**Ethical Concerns:** At the time I joined, certain marketing tactics raised red flags for me.

The property is a duplex with an ARV (after repair value) of $700,000, making it a strong deal.However, I want to ensure I’m not overlooking any potential red flags.

And when a property cycles back to the market, it's not always a red flag – sometimes it's just market dynamics at work.

It gives you the flexibility to get started quickly and stay on track without the red tape.

I have just received the same callThis a legitimate business model for a STR company, but the website raised a lot of red flags and I would not feel comfortable doing business with them.

I'm curious as to the "financial institutions" you've talking to, were they banks?
