Aim high, and have a great holiday season, brother!

Points I can roll into the cost and don't mind a buy down if necessary.My primary concern is the bleed rate monthly for the build, Airbnb stabilization and the year after while we season it and prep for final financing for long term hold.

Look for a local credit union that can offer a cash-out refinance once the work is done, ideally with minimal seasoning.

You can also put it on furnish finder and try to get a medium term rental until busy season. 

Remote investing is just one way to invest and as many of you seasoned investors know.

Given they are going to damage the walls while moving anyway it eliminates their need to touch up the halls and I can usually schedule to have one painter knock out multiple units in a day but even if its a one off sale, it comes across as good service for a small amount of money.In a storage area within the house or garage I will leave an unopened box of each tile, and flooring used in the house along with unopened 1 gallon buckets of the wall and semi gloss paints and one of each door hardware (kitchen and interior doorway.

For example is a personal loan from a bank is 7.5 % that you could use as a down payment (after its seasoned), and your 401k loan is 4.5% but the 401k is expected to return 7.5% per year the money you save on one end you miss out on the other end basically and if your 401k returns are 20%, then you lose out significantly. 2.

I don't know your specific market all that well but have you done some analysis on your ADR during the high season X your high season occupancy rate and determined whether taking lower priced slow season bookings vs letting your property stay vacant during the winter averages out in your favor?

Tis the season.
