Just because the costs might be in the furture does not warrant not budgeting for those known expensesThen there is the misc costs of asset protection, bookkeeping, unexpected utilities (such as between tenants (tenant turn over) or failure not attributable to the tenant such as slab leak).  

Now I aim for bigger and better, I want to buy a home FOR airbnb but I still want to simultaneously still do airbnb arbitrage, the benefits are just too great at the moment and to be honest a lot of the money profit wise I just have been utilizing to put back into the business and further expanding, paying off business line of credit and such.

And I would find a decent job to utilize to help get traditional lending with.

Utilities weren’t quite there yet, and Jeff almost walked away.

Make sure utilities are available, and that you have tap fees included in your estimate, as well as engineering (site plan), architectural plan, and other bits you might need to consider for your market (landscaping and costs of sale, for example).

Title report, confirm utilities and zoning etc. 

To pull this off, you may want to use social media platforms to find your next great deal.But how do you utilize these platforms to find real estate sellers who are motivated to work with you?

That's a heavy load to carry over time and sure will come with consequences.

Reasoning for asking this is that it could potentially be a beneficial long play on acquiring a property through assumption, and as we go down in interest rates, utilize this monetary benefit to refi as it comes at a mere .5%.
