@Andrew Beaver I tried looking for units myself to deploy this strategy as I have two vacation Airbnb's already.

The plan is to deploy several hundred thousand in capitol (from a post tax brokerage account) split up across 5 investments or so to start for the sake of both Diversity and possible Passive pairing to help with taxes (Ex one may give more losses and other more passive income and thus offset). 

We'll deploy whatever strategy makes sense and not limit ourselves to 1 specific strategy. 

@Christopher LaneMy view is that in lots (most) markets that make sense to invest in, a strategy that continually deploys capital into market priced assets that are 100% ready to go, but does that 'force appreciation' or add value in any way - is that your debt service ratio goes down and down and will asymptote at a level below where most banks want to lend. 

It may be easier to just get a 2nd loan without the HELOC part as private lenders will want the capital deployed if it is being tied up. 

Ideally I would like to see more of a return than 8% to 11% over the next year for locking up my money in such a deal.I'm a DoD contractor currently deployed overseas and I would be interested with speaking with investors on the ground in the St.

I know its been a little while since I was on here, but deployment life doesn't lead to being online all the time.

When I'm considering options like yours (sell or keep), I try to weigh the opportunity cost of the equity deployed.

The note investing industry is very mature in the conventional mortgage sector, but I have yet to see opportunities to purchase non-performing, short-term, high-interest debt provided to investors.As we're growing, I've raised more capital, so I figured this could be an effective way to deploy that capital within my core competency.

Also have a property listed that will essentially be a break even flip, which is unfortunate, but we have a lot of capital tied up in it that we want to have ready for deployment in the near future when an opportunity presents itself.
