From the sounds of it, STR is going to be our best bet and is going to be what ensures our success.

Your best bet will likely be partnering on deals, where others bring the funding and you bring a different value proposition.

The other advantage of doing a credit check is we allow those tenants to pay monthly and we get payment outside a platform to avoid fees.

So you think it's financially sound to pay:1 - $20k DP2 - All of the cost of the remod3 - All of the taxes and insurance for a year4 - ...and, $15,600 in payments......over the course a year, with NO INCOME at all, on the hope that the remod will allow you to double your rent...which if all works out, and you run all of the numbers, I bet you still don't break even until the year 2031?...

Best bet is to locate commercial brokers around the country for pocket listings...There is also a YouTube channel I believe it's called Commercial Property Advisors or something like that, the guy has some excellent videos on commercial properties.

I'll definitely be leveraging this platform for that.

Also, does anyone have any thoughts on Roofstock and whether you think its worth the time saved to use their platform for OOS investing?

There is a Notes Direct platform where Eddie Speed’s team sells notes and investors can sign up and bid/buy there.  

I bet you'll still be seeing word art in model manufactured housing for the next 5 years, minimum! 

I bet you have done this before!
