You’re absolutely right about the market potentially shifting, and this is where those who are ready to act and think creatively win big.

(I know a lot of investors who are doing this, but I've been surprised to find out that it's a new concept that others haven't considered.)The more units, the better in this scenario because you can hedge your bets with more units.

It seems like a win-win, especially with the simplified approval process and flexibility for multi-generational housing.

To win the STR game, especially if you're a new entrant, the most important aspects are 1) Amenities2) Location3) Property type4) UniquenessAll are geared toward you standing out on Airbnb/VRBOHot tubs, fire pit, bowling alley, pools etc. or being in the best location in an area as well as being to host a large group are all things to help you win.

Win some, lose some.

In both my seller financed deals the primary bank I was betting on backed out.

If you have a lease with this tenant that allows them the dogs, you can still say they are in violation of the lease, I'll bet, by something in the lease that says they aren't to bother the neighbors or cause any disturbances, etc.

If tenant fails to appear you might win right then.

We went in with what we hoped would be the winning offer because this is the one that checked the most boxes of everything we'd seen in months and we really like it.Am I even under contract for this property with everything in the address being wrong? 

I aim to make win-win arrangements for both buyer and seller.
