I see a lot of new construction in Richmond and Berea as I travel from Lex nearly every day im excited to see how the mega site in Mt Vernon and Richmond grow these areas What surrounding areas of Lexington are you seeing more activity?

You absolutlely need to be direct to seller or have close, personal relationships with wholesalers and active agents.

Look, I have no idea who Eric is, what type of person he is but I will say after a quick search I saw that he did in fact sell his company for MAJOR $$$ and that he is active in Section 8, no idea if his course is good or garbage but still felt the urge to respond because I am so tired of hearing SCAMMER, find it online to EVERY SINGLE post asking about any course. anyone who actually sells their business and nets 110 mil is NOT going to dive into Section 8 or any real estate for that matter other than fine personal residences etc.. they retire and spend it.. so I dont think so.Plus section 8 is simply not complicated its run by the Sec 8 folks in each city.. nothing magical about that.. its a tough way to go being a section 8 landlord lots of drama.

It is not uncommon for syndicators to list properties they were passive LP investors in, and for sure to list properties they were/are also a part of GP, with limited/minimal active management roles.

Quote from @V.G Jason: I'm sure they've slowed down, but are still actively looking.

As someone actively investing in STRs and looking to scale, this raises some concerns for me about the long-term viability of this strategy.I understand the tension between hotels and STRs, especially in popular tourist destinations, but I’m curious:How real is this threat?

I keep coming across posters asking for advice on how to “scale” their investment or business activities.  

Understand you have great equity position but it is expensive, but more importantly  takes a lot of time and very distracting from other money making activities to foreclose.

Those agents have their ego at the expense of the relationship, and there are such agents actively participating in this thread.

They actively try to recruit people in mine.
