I’m currently exploring the Short-Term Rental (STR) market in Ft.

Reason being HML's are typically short term loans that are interest only.

A short time later, I found myself on a plane to Spokane, Washington, to attend an Inner Circle class which was taught by Lee Arnold personally.

@Marc Shin, Soundproofing is definitely something worth tackling for a short-term rental—it’ll keep your guests happy and help you avoid complaints.

It is the interest rates at which banks lend to each other and is short for Secured Overnight Financing Rate. 

I am but a short drive in the pocono mountains / scranton area.

And I also see many questions popping up about running a short term rental business, which to me is more of a business than an investment although it does involve an investment in real estate. 

If I have several options, I would prefer a HELOC with no initial draw requirements (i.e. to establish a literal line of credit that I have no specific short term plans to use), i.e. not something like the better.com HELOC. 

Durham on the other hand is a great opportunity for investors seeking more short-term growth, more options, and higher likelihood of cashflow. 

Our short term rentals we managed through Google Docs Excel, and the 40 or so rentals better just ours we manage through Stessa.
