Hey @Eddie Hincewicz, just an FYI, I did an extensive survey of a bunch of lenders and none of them would lend more on an operating STR vs a similar home.That does include if they have a permit.So anyone looking to buy, they would have to come up with the extra cash if the owner wants to charge more than the comps support.

I would suggest getting going here for a membership to the Stark County Real Estate Investors Association to start networking at many events throughout the month with local & like minded investors, contractors, realtors, lenders, etc...

Things like feasibility studies, site surveys and site selection will play a part in the success of the project.

Can't really argue, places like Indianapolis, Columbus, Dayton, even Chicago (despite the higher Illinois taxes and…all the fun that comes along with Chicago) can pencil if you find the right property.On a different front, though, I ran a survey a week ago asking where people are looking to invest this year.

I have found two classes with membership options but I am having a hard time deciding which class or if I even need a class.

June 2024 Lee County Florida Foreclosure ReportThe June 2024 Lee County Foreclosure Report was complied by Jeff Tumbarello, Director SWFL REIA , Broker/Owner Steelbridge Realty LLC Principal , Venture Investment PartnersThis is my work, done for me and shared with youThe data in the report came from multiple sources.Those sources are:The Lee County Clerk of Court, and MLS data (from my membership as the Broker of Steelbridge Realty LLC)We haven’t published this report in a while as the market trajectory previously rendered this dataset less crucial for forward-looking decisions.

With the inner circle membership, they set up your company, website, crm, and offer you leads to purchase for an additional $500 per lead which is generated through their website.

I will be renewing my membership.

He has bought the land and paid for design and survey work out of pocket.

Better yet, get a Pro membership and then they are free.
