The Beach market is very heavy VRBO and direct with Airbnb filling in more of the less than 30 day out stays.

If you're dialing 100+ people a day and not coming out with 2-3 solid conversations per day after a week, then change the tools, but in my experience its usually the skill of the caller, so get dialing because the only way to get better is through practice.The good news: once you get some traction and close deals, you can hire a VA cold caller to do most of the grunt work and focus on the handraisers and nurturing them.

Thank you for the responses.

Ive joined several FB groups but haven’t gotten much in the way of responses from my messages.

This sounds like a good plan - sticking to the duplex or SFH for students is good too since most DSCR Lenders generally stay away from "student housing" but if you are looking to purchase a rental property that can easily be utilized to rent to any tenant (adult, family etc) including students, you should be OKThanks for the response, Robin!

You have got to be sure your contracts and terms are solid and ran through title to be sure you are protected. 

Thanks for your detailed response.

Thank you for your response

Ive had this done before just make sure it is within the property line and write up your own small contract that the tenant is responsible for its upkeep and repair plus the fact that it stays when they leave.

I wouldn't get too hung up on a specific number or rule about how much of the mortgage you are responsible for after your rental income WHILE LIVING IN THE PROPERTY.
