The founder appears to have been involved in businesses outside of real estate: ‘My dream is a locally made grooming products business’ | People | nashvillepost.comSo it does not appear there is a lot of track record there, but those are questions I would ask.

So some may say $30k is not worth it but I know others that launched successful syndication businesses from it.

  :)   There's so many Gurus pitching this and that without mentioning the risks to them and to the buyers.So glad to hear re your business model being fair to the buyer.   

I am learning in the real estate business as well but in the Kentucky/Tennessee Market!

I use Proper insurance, unwritten by Lloyds of London, for my STR - covers the extra issues you would expect from an STR like vandalism, alcohol liabilities, business interruption up $10k, hot-tub cooties etc.

I have a small contractor business here in Abilene that is pretty new, owned and operated by me if any of you guys need a hand.

So, get busy on your listings. 

Sell your investment property and buy the land for your business. 

I also ran my own roofing business one summer of college.

You did some fraud or such and I would want to know for sure before doing business with someone.
