Most owners of short-term rentals on the islands and the nearby areas have been dealing with the triple whammy of a slowing economy effecting rental revenue this year, higher insurances and higher property taxes.

Since tenants are not all the same schedule, there are no bottlenecks for kitchen or bathrooms use.Lower level: Large unit for the onsite-manager with private kitchen and bath (has windows in every room but is partly below grade), plus the common area laundry room, and managers’ tool room / storage room.What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

An an effective way to use a HELOC would be on a value add/BRRRR deal.

Though deals seem hard to find, it doesn't seem impossible.

I have some experience buy and hold rental properties, and now I want to do flips, I need investors and I have some that have shown interest, in addition to speaking to private lenders that are willing to fund 70% of the LTV (based on the desired property)I'm seeing a lot of deals from wholesalers, but the problem is, some of them close in 2 weeks and some as long as a month, and they don't take conditional offers, and the good ones fly off the shelf really quick.My question is, how does someone like me close one of those deals within this short period, how do you arrange the equity and financing with little to no inspections sometimes even.I'd like to know how do I prepare myself to be able to close one of these good deals right away when they are offered to me and many others?

If you mean finding good deals, people hire investors like me to find those deals.

Also - I'm dealing with an applicant right now who appears to live with a family member (same last name, listed as the landlord on her application) who was just served an eviction notice on September 14.

I have a property listed for 375, 000 Has a business using 7,000 sf of the first floor it has 3 total floors with a total of 21,000 sf I may have the deal worked to buy the business which will pay the building 2000 a month in rent .

@Sean KirkDepending on the market you are looking in if you have a good team sourcing off-market deals you should be able to find good turnkey opportunities.
