It'll be confusing in the short term, I think people assume it's inflationary.

I still attend local meet ups and talk to dozens of investors and am considering other strategies like Mid-Term Rentals or rent by the room. 

Hi Adriana, I am a commercial real estate investor in the U.S. but I live in Dubai.In terms of the BRRR strategy, you could probably do a fix and flip in some of the older villa communities like the Springs, Meadows, or Arabian Ranches 1.

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.

just double checked my lender is now 80% LTV for short term rentals only 85% for long term rentals

you will not find a cashflowing property at 100% financing whether its with a traditional loan and heloc or whatever the terms. 

Passive income is certainly the name of the game - building a real estate portfolio and creating generational wealth are key ingredients to long term holistic financial health and success.There are fantastic real estate investment opportunities in various markets, particularly in the Midwest and Southeast of the country. 

I would also never buy a short term rental in an HOA - it's just one more entity that can tell you what you can or cannot do. 

The rate and terms on the 2nd lien position if you can find one may also not make it worth the cash out.

MTRs fall into the standard long term rental( 30 day +) category and will follow those regulations set for Long term rentals.
