A couple of things to consider, the first code that is generated for each guest is long, 16 digits, however, guests can change it to a 3-6 digit one, and also once you create a code, there is no way to cancel it remotely, you have to be near the lock to cancel the code is you need to. 

I have however heard that the market here is strong for STR so I've been poking around.There's a realtor on here @George Mevawala that just posted about that as his focus and providing investors double digit COC returns.

This has only been a part-time gig anyways as I’ve always had full and part-time jobs in addition to the real estate.There comes a time when you’re working your numbers - maybe doing a PFS for the bank, maybe just checking what you can liquidate for, and all of a sudden it’s 7 digits.  

Not giving legal advice, but my understanding of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act is that digital copies of a signed contract carry the same weight as the original copy.

As far as returns go, realistically I am targeting to net in the high single digits and if I can touch double digits then I will be happy.

The thing I am reading online is that this won't necessarily hold up in court as there is a difference between a digital signature, an e-signature and then I guess there are legal version of those.

It would be very difficult to get double digit net caps 

Thanks, Alex I would look to track record and solid digital Prescence, good website, solid record of online reviews, etc.One thing to note is that it is going to be tough "breaking in" with the top mortgage brokers, because by definition of being top brokers, they probably have a good track record, experience and relationships with a lot of lenders - so its typically high risk low reward adding a new lender or one without a long track record to the list. 

Id be happy to shoot you some quality referrals who finance double digits buyers for me every year. 

I do occasionally post it on some social media pages that target specific guest types, like travel nurses or digital nomads but haven't gotten any leads from doing so.
