The key factor is the amount paid and the nature of the payment, not the payment method.

@Tim Ryan I should have said the unit is uninhabitable and by rehabbing it will produce rental income, so a years rental income/ capital invested = CoC return?

Reach out to the Marcus & Millichap offices in Columbus/Cleveland and have one of the MMCC commercial mortgage brokers produce a few quotes for you.If you don't have the time to research contact info / programs for 25-50 different lenders and make the calls/emails necessary to obtain optimal financing, hire a broker.

To have enough discretionary funds to be able to invest at this level means that even if a deal goes completely down the drain, I can still feed my family, tithe to my church, pay my bills, and try again later.I do appreciate the probing nature of your questions!

The modules are over 40 videos and weekly calls that happen 3 to 4 times a week geared to mentor you along the way till your units start producing like they should.

It's shedding material from impact of sun's rays, that's how elec is produced.

I also assume a 3-4% yearly rent increase, which naturally increases the vacancy and repair amounts over time.

But if hold on them for awhile and pay them off, then your family and kids and enjoy the income they produce.

Eventually it becomes second nature.

As I see it in the current market, STR is now a way to get a really good, appreciating asset to pay for itself, not a way to produce a meaningful amount of cash flow after all expenses.
