Unfortunately, many make the mistake of solely looking at the numbers when that is not the entire picture.

Luckily I am in a prime location and have a unique house.I am still optimizing my airbnb, I need more professional pictures, I need to get Superhost/Primier host status, I need to find a way to atleast be in the first 3 pages in the Airbnb search consistently (which I am currently but it fluctuates), and so on.

It seems like your ROI is basically the same in each option, but you are taking on a much bigger project to convert a single family to a four-family.So basic calculations, since we don't have a full financial picture, i.e. what does financing of each look like?  

Though the property and surrounding areas look nice in the pictures, the doors and windows has bars which concern me.I am just starting our my RE investment journey and all help is greatly appreciated.

The deal seems to pencil, but the bigger picture stuff makes me nervous. 

If I understand correctly, you're suggesting that we should focus on the big picture rather than getting caught up in minor details?.

We are in pre-development, and getting a clear picture of these initial soft costs has not been straightforward so I greatly appreciate the information.

You get the picture. 

My questions 2 and 3 are misleading while taking into context the bigger picture which you clarified.I do not know how to track record of a syndicate.

However, I do agree that there is a problematic trend of guru's falling in love with "creative" without understanding the big picture.
