Being a first time home buyer as well as having the home be owner occupant I was able to only put 5% down through money I had saved throughout high school.

One thing we have done was to offer amenities that carry high value in the area and build these costs into our rental agreement.

The setup fees are high and the annual fees are even higher.

If you are looking for a consistent performing STR assets then I would highly recommend Fort Morgan, Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Perdido Key area along the AL/FL coastI have helped many recent investors find turnkeys properties as well as vacant lots for them to build STR new construction homes on.

It's in a city (outside the USA in Mexico) that has seen major growth the last 3-5 years and has great prospects to continue growing thanks to nearshoring and high cost of living across the border in the USA.I spoke to an architect and it looks like a 4-unit building can be built on there.

It is highly likely the person taking the money would be charged with a crime and lose their license. 

Dee, I highly recommend you use a landlord attorney to prepare a lease for you.
