I have been working in the Cleveland markets for 10 + years with various govt programs, LOVE IT.

I went to a learn-on-the-site program that our local REIA had recently.  3BR/3BA house, owner is probably in 145K after fix up (I know the purchase price, don't know what was spent to get it ready after purchase) and a handful of years later it's now worth 190K. 

In terms of the second scenario, the upside I see is the option to get a different kind of loan (say, FHA with a lower down payment and other assistance programs for K-12 educators like me) since I'd be getting a new primary residence instead of a second home.

Sending a personalized greeting to guests when they book, answering their questions, programming lock codes, logging new bookings in my records and notifying my cleaners of them and any requests for early check in, paying cleaners monthly, ordering supplies, updating my listing descriptions about once a week even if it's just a sentence here or there (helps with rankings on the platforms, esp.

I had doubts and still have some but now it sounds like those may have been necessary for their loan program after learning why it's a lower risk and FDIC insured requires that. 

I enjoyed the 3 day workshop and thought it was worthwhile so I joined the $40k program and I have regretted it!

@Simandu YakubovFor my flipping business, I prefer to use fewer software programs to streamline things.

I'm skeptical of most programs and gurus, but he seemed legit.

It is a lot of work and I understand you want to "pour some gas on the fire" but likely you will just be setting cash on fire.Hey Andrew, I just spoke with Vintory yesterday about a potential inventory growth program.

That being said, I would use the "Lenders" link on BiggerPockets to try to reach out to more lenders about any programs they have that may fit your needs.Granted, my personal experience is somewhat dated, but when I was primarily doing BRRRs, I had a local lender that required 12 month seasoning on my first two deals.
