We are thinking the LLC to have Dwelling/Landlord insurance and then traditional homeowners for the multi we plan to live in.

I don't know what a regular SFH sells for in that market (I just know the COMPS you said about other townhomes) but if you can buy lots of homes for under $100k I would think that people that can't qualify for a traditional mortgage may not have the 3.5% for the down.

A traditional refi won't free up immediate cash, but depending on your current rate, as Sherief said, it could save you some money.

These are the places that have traditionally low impact to inflation and pandemics.

Depreciation section seems geared towards traditional rentals vs true <7 day STRs

Connor,Traditional DSCR loans offer a DSCR down to .75 of total rents. 

I would also check out getaway.house they have tiny cabins out here in the Northeast and although it seems to be a somewhat larger operation, this is exactly in the line of what I was thinking, but on a smaller scale as it would have been just one little cabin,  when I wanted to embark on my original idea....but they are on to something....but like I said financing for this type of thing is hard cuz you can’t get traditional financing for it....so maybe a small group of investors with some cash could work... 

Introducing Self-Directed IRAsA self-directed IRA is an individual retirement account that allows you to take advantage of all the same tax benefits of a traditional IRA, but it also allows you to have more control of your funds AND you can invest in alternative investments like real estate and real estate syndications.

It’s not a hands off job and traditional landlord have more freedom with their time.
