Just curious if you find it makes a difference updating your photos on a somewhat regular basis or tend to leave the STR photos the same once you have somewhat found a sweet spot?

I enjoy tenants turnover ever few years for the reason fair market rents tend to increase significantly year over year. 

While I find this the ideal way to buy more properties it also stunts my growth and I tend to lose patients. 

Although these platforms tend to accept bigger deals from sponsors with a lot of experience.

I tend to agree and don't think it will be an issue.

Rates tend to be 25 to 50 basis points above commercial (5+ unit) apartment building loans, and 50-100 basis points above residential (1-4 unit) loans.

The clientele tends to skew old and stuffy. 

For these, costs tend to double across the board, especially for older buildings.

They took tend to take longer to close..

None were a match for me personally and many were not a strategy I wanted or too speculative (such as opportunistic strategy which is the riskiest strategy or investing in tertiary markets which also tend to be the first to go belly up when there is trouble etc).You probably actually want to look at your operating agreement to see what rights you have to books and records, etc.
