@Colby FryaWatch out for those holding costs. 9 months of HML could eat your profit margin.

Oftentimes, when it comes to hotel units, the fees and expenses eat up a lot of the profits. 

I'm not a financial advisor, I just play one on TV, nor am I a securities attorney, and I don't know a great deal about your specific goals or situation, but I would not put all your eggs in one basket to start. 

And I will echo what the others here have said...Acquisition costs, rehab costs, holding costs, and selling costs are going to eat up your margins on this.

IF they did all the work, put in the effort, and showed proof that they were out of pocket and not getting $ back from processor, I would maybe split it with them 50/50 but not a snowballs chance in hell I would eat the expense for their screw-up with their payment processor on a tenant they placed, no way.

When you buy 2-3 properties at once, and next year the market is crashing or you find a great deal you can not just sell them, because closing cost eat all your profit.

I guess we can't have our cake and eat it too.

Share examples of similar setups nearby (as this is indeed common among small multis)"Eat dirt" - you eat some dirt (or crow or what-have-you) and you have this installed. 

They could pass another stimulus and prolong it even more but eventually someone’s got to eat the costs and it won’t be the banks (it will be the homeowners) unless we put the tab on the taxpayer in an unprecedented move.

The accrued interest, late fees, foreclose fees/costs, plus the sales cost would eat most if not all of any equity potential in my opinion.No short sale here either based on what you wrote.
