I agree that DealCheck (or the BP calculator) does not provide enough tools or functionality to analyze those types of transactions (yet).But I would argue that it does a great job at analyzing more traditional buy & hold SFRs and multi-families, as well as flips and rehab projects. 

Real estate is all about getting rich slow, not quick.I'd be happy to connect.  

-> Funding: you can consider as options mortage brokers who can scout/compare the best offers in the market and you can also consider public funding programmes that exists as an incentive to renovate and bring houses to the market, either for tourism or traditional rental.As an example, on the traditional rental there is a funding program ("Arrendamento Acessivel") that funds up to 90% of the project and can be used to cover part of the renovation costs, as well as, part of the purchasing.

I hear you, I think the price of turn key STRs are almost impossible to make money on in the traditional markets. 

The fee you pay is actually to get access to all the training and to be able to submit to the Deal Genie for either Wholesale, or Fix and Flip Riches.

To give you something as a reference based on your budget (30-40% down with $1.8M), the general cap rates you will see in the Bay Area are roughly 3-5% https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1047-Rich-Ave-Mountain-View-...https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1180-Saranap-Ave-Walnut-Cree...You will find higher cap rates and more 20+ units buildings in SF, Oakland, and Richmond, but keep in mind of their stringent tenant laws. 

The idea is spreading, and could spread to some other spots here that have traditionally been STR friendly. 

Two of my units will be vacated in the next 2 months so this is a good time to consider this over my traditional 12 month leases again. 

I have used both Traditional (pre-tax) funds, Roth and HSA.

My name is Rich.
