One concern that I have is that I need to be able to sustain this during a downturn.

Consider if refinancing after increasing rents could work, and whether MTR/STR demand is strong enough to sustain long-term profitability.Keep as LTR with Minimal Cash Flow: While this avoids a cash outlay, being cash flow negative or barely breaking even isn’t sustainable long-term.

Find one that can be custom to your needs, has flexible pricing, no long-term, high-cost memberships and excellent customer services to determine how to best market to your leads.

As a customer I would 100% want to see the outside.

What I ultimately decided on after speaking with many people in the business and bank customer representatives was to make a savings account for each deposit.

I do wholesale or can custom look for something that fits your wants.

Would a container community be more sustainable than an apartment complex? 

Once the company sends out an email telling their customers that they are their "family" you know everything else after that is going to be a line of b/s and deflection lol.I hope you are well.

Unless you have a specific monthly target for your payment you can spread that out to make it a Win/Win.There has been a lot of growth in Denver over the last 2-3 years and new builds as well I just closed on a home for a customer in commerce city they also moved from CA and needed a fresh start. 

•Does this sound like a scalable and sustainable business model?
