(I had two backup offers at full list price). 

You should have a lot of backup cash if things go south.

Seems unlikely  IF that is the case I would likely do it, but would have a backup plan i.e.

.- Regularly back up your data.- Keep software updated.- Limit user access and monitor activity.- Educate your team on security.- Secure your devices with antivirus.Protect your financial data with these essential steps!

Thanks @Dave Skow@Daniel Alhadeff The property was in the Seattle area but I decided to not go through with it because my backup was to rent it out as a room rental if the AFH didn't work out but the property would be hard to run as a room rental.

So most of my clients implement and STR strategy with the option to MTR as back up. 

Backup plan for STRs should be that you can go LTR if city or county ordinances change, or if the property is under performing.

Most states seem to be going in the direction that they must be hardwired with a backup battery and they must be interconnected.

I'd suggest preparing to start renting out your home in the Spring as the season picks back up again.

But as a short-term solution, playing the 0% credit card game can be an option, but from my experience, juggling from one to the next with no backup plan often ends in paying high interest in the long run.
