Do your due diligence and hop in the game Bryan.

Hi @Scott Choppin,I have been playing around with the idea of doing a smaller development type situation in my city of MissouIa, MT.

Most people on the Oregon Coast in populated and touristy areas typically choose to do VRBO or Aribnb to hopefully get more income but long term leases are also a good play on the coast.

Know your numbers and have a game plan that makes sense when you show other people.House Hack!

You should come to the BiggerPockets meetup we’re having at Barleys in the old city Nov 30th at 630 pm, it would be cool to have a guy that does Airbnb there to tell us how that game goes.

I'm an active duty US Navy Chief Petty Officer, brand-new BPer and real estate enthusiast, I got turned on to this whole game (and BiggerPockets) at the suggestion of a coworker shortly after I moved to Tampa back in July. 

The bank is TD so I am assuming they generally play it safe and don't want to risk it.

Yeah, I think that only comes into play if the sale price is more than double the purchase price.

I know they say don't mix family and business, but this was the best opportunity for us to get in the game so we jumped on it!
