But neither do you, yet you started with:"Short answer is "yes"  - which I consider misleading.And you manipulated the OP's question to fit your agenda.

My property is fully renovated, furnished and ready for immediate occupancy, making it an ideal solution for families or individuals in need of temporary housing during their recovery process.I would greatly appreciate any insights, recommendations, or specific contacts that could help me effectively position this property in the disaster recovery housing market.I have one last question's lot of Insurance company stop writing policy in long island NY.

What other questions should I be asking?

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

So I'd say the answer to your question is it depends.

I think it is just as indisputable that higher cost markets will produce greater value add via a proper rehab.Next question is does initial cash flow have any correlation to actual cash flow over a long hold. 

.: Great question.

To answer your questions here though:Alternative options - I was going to sell all my stocks and etfs, take out a HELOC, and some credit cards to try to shoestring together enough to the deal without a hard money loan. 

Eric, thanks for the question and appreciate the challenge.

This question never has a "best" answer, only best for your situation!
