I recommend you go visit a few times to network with local investors or find an investor friendly agent so you can gain local market knowledge, find off market deals and for things such as showings, picture taking or getting accurate comps.

Points I can roll into the cost and don't mind a buy down if necessary.My primary concern is the bleed rate monthly for the build, Airbnb stabilization and the year after while we season it and prep for final financing for long term hold. well doubt unless you get money from a relative or close friend that you will do any better in the market.

There are opinions on these forums and people have a right to them and people may take it as criticism. real estate is not a business where everyone is friendly and just as you have shown from whoever was trying to scam you and has nothing to do with doing your best, its about being educated before moving forward. 

I admire your spirit and outside-the-box thinking my friend.
