We have owned a STR in Florida's panhandle, which has done very well for us for 10 years. 

Over three decades, I've not seen a ton of situations where no money down/100% leverage has worked well. 

Well, this my opinion, if you like unpredictability, constant change and people/contractors with no regards to you or your property then "YES" flips and STRs are the way to go...LOL....I love it!!! 

I've uploaded the template (well, it says it is for 15 minutes), but nothing ever happens.  

We specialize in helping investors access opportunities in both residential and commercial markets, leveraging our network and industry knowledge to identify high-potential deals.

The upper level of society works in ways most of us will never understand...it sadly continues to be a back-and-forth thing of reaction...If our country and Chicago as well could take a proactive long term approach, our kid's kids would benefit in a way we couldn't image....

I am looking to join a mentorship program to help lower my learning curve and until I find it, I am educating myself with books, as well as YouTube University and great advice from the BiggerPockets community.I do work full-time in a career that I love and is very rewarding, but I also know I won't attain my goals with my current job.

Additionally, it needs a new roof, new HVAC, new plumbing, the septic is over 30 years old, the well could use a filter, a few new windows, none of the electric is up to code… and it’s on almost an acre of land….

I have an STR in Niagara Falls and it does pretty well based on the purchase price. 

Work at establishing in-person relationships that will serve you well over time, not just one-and-done.
