Personally, I've been in the mobile home investing space since 2007 without going the section 8 route.

No, you shouldn't, and the cash flow has to make sense for your personal situation and goals, but saying "you are not banking on appreciation" is in my opinion saying that "you are not banking on the stock market going up over the next 10 years", when the majority of peoples sole retirement is in a 401(k) with the whole idea of the market going up.

I also went to meet Wagner and his team personally at their Orlando office.

A developer would be a good person to talk to as well if you can find one.

@Aaron DuboisI don't know what your personal situation is, but can you house hack an STR with your own capital? 

Renting by room to the max occupancy to minimize the outflow of your personal cash into the property.3.

You can have everything you want to protect yourself in the lease but there will be a lawyer out there that will try and say that you are still responsible and not the person that died.

Me personally, it took me a while to understand what the expectations were for rentals in my market for different classes of rentals and it was much different than I would have expected at the beginning.

I’m looking for Net and occupancy for 2023.The unit I have a contract on was mostly used for personal use, I’m looking for rental numbers…. and sellers aren’t willing to give these up. 

So if it’s a $10 million deal and we are using 50% leverage then the capital raise is $5 million my partner and I will personally invest between us $500 - 750k into the deal under the exact same terms as the other investors.
