Then I would do a low risk flip ( rehab less than a few weeks) for hopefully a 10-15% profit, repeat until I have a nice down payment and am sure that I would be able to qualify for a refinance, then buy a buy and hold then continue flipping until I get to the next buy and hold - in theory, the time between each property should decrease as I should be getting capital from the buy + hold as well as I would already have my reserves built up.

Annual taxes are low.

Unfortunately they aren't very good for finding quality Realtors.

Low out of pocket cost. 

@Tom Dieringer After purchasing my first property in 2024, I acquired most of my short-term rental (STR) knowledge from The Short Term Shop, which included maintaining respectful communication with guests, keeping calendar availability up-to-date, and ensuring high-quality listings.When I initially began May of 2024, I opted to list my property exclusively on a single Online Travel Agency (OTA) - Vrbo.

Start with durable, high-quality basics: plush towels, soft linens, and a fully stocked kitchen with sharp knives, pans, and essentials like oil and spices.

If you're locked in at a low interest rate, it might be worth keeping.

They have lost many employees and the level of service and quality has been dismal.

Add those people in by using County or Schoolarea population.Example:Town1:#ofunits/headcount= 300 units in the area/ population 3,000= 10 unitsper 100 people.Town2:5004,000= 12.5 per 100Town3:andso on.Doevery stand alone town in a 60 mile radius, or until your satisfied.You will get a High, Low and a average.

You could structure a low down payment with interest-only payments for a set period, then refinance later.Master Lease with Option to Buy – Control the property now, generate cash flow by leasing it, then buy once it's stabilized.Sub-To or Wrap Mortgage – If there’s existing debt, you might be able to take over payments or structure a wraparound mortgage to benefit both parties.Hard Money or Private Lender for Reno Costs – If you secure a seller-financed deal, you can use private or hard money for the rehab without tying up your own capital.BRRRR Strategy with a Bridge Loan – If you can get the purchase price down, use a bridge loan for acquisition and rehab, then refinance with DSCR or conventional financing.Would love to hear more details to help structure something solid.
