Financing options do exist: hard money loans, renovation loans, and some traditional mortgages can be used on distressed properties if criteria are met.

With countless loan options, complex terms, and strict lending criteria, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

There are risky, but high return options like QQQ which grew 27% over the last year or on the other side / safe end, there are super secure short term US government bonds like SGOV which pays out about 4.5% in dividends. 

But you have a few different options.

There are a lot of positive ROI options in that bucket.To answer your question anything on the beach will rent well. 

REI websites that offer sales data usually offer market rents when you switch to the rents option.

I am looking into my STR options but from what I have learned this is a overflowing market in the area and the vacancy's are increasing so I may look into mid term and long term only.

Another great option is the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), where you buy a fixer-upper, renovate it, rent it out, and refinance to pull your cash back for the next deal, and this is a good route because most private lenders can go higher LTV than on a rental loan! 

If you ever want to explore other funding options for future flips, let me know! 

I’m curious to know what others think about these options.
