I've recently bought a property specifically to rent out full time and it got me thinking about how a STR business can expand.It seems like the main avenues are:1. work with landlords to rent out properties and simply pay them rent2. co host and manage other people's listings3. buy properties and run yourselfeach has their pros and cons, though #1 seems the most approachable, though would take a good amount of work to find landlords open to allowing it.What have been ways that you've scaled your business beyond just 1 property?

I think people who take care of business will provide full disclosure, because for them full disclosure is a selling point.

I'm happy to tell you about my experience as a full time investor over the last 4 years.  

Robert Freeborn You answered your own question - your inexperienced in something this size - start smaller and get full understanding before buying a multifamily that is 7 figures

I have only found as low as 75k for stated, everything under 75k is full doc.

It's inevitable that they will still exist because human beings make mistakes and have been making mistakes in real estate constantly since the beginning of time.

This implies that you will not be able to extract the full $150K equity through a typical refinance. 

So last night I did my first full property analysis and the home seemed like it might make a decent investment.

Also, will turning the home into a full rental property influence my goal to get a second mortgage, or will they only factor in my debt to income?
