I'm going to start gathering investment property quotes this week but wondering if anyone has any guidance on whether the cost varies depending on the type of rental?

Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions, want to discuss, or would like to get your financing started!

I am reposting something I sent to the general starting-out community because it is specifically about STR.

I've been involved in the construction field for over 30 years and started my own construction company in 2008 when I also started flipping houses. 8 years ago I sold the construction company and began buying and holding long term rentals.

to get to the point, i would find an area likely to experience more demand and ensure the financials work out for both MTR & LTR's. i would ideally start out with a fourplex and depending how that goes, possibly scale from there. i do believe that it is more traditional to syndicate on larger properties so i am wondering if you know if it is possible to syndicate, starting off, for one fourplex or even one MTR condo. my gut feeling is to start with one beach-front condo in florida that requires $37,250 down . a new construction fourplex, however, i could finance with a USDA loan myself and not have to consider investors so that may make things easier, possibly.no airbnb's. maybe VRBO. two week minimum stay. only in areas very likely to have housing demand due to new factories being built.i own/run an STR right now and it is going well with only the occasional hiccup.

There's only one exception to that last point and that's CDMX, which has started implementing regulations because foreign investors renting short-term have pushed rents too high for the local population, which has turned against those investors.

I am excited to keep learning and to start out in real estate investing.

Flipping homes is NOT something a person just starts at, that's insane. 

Start there and it will give you a better idea.AirBNB and VRBO are the 2 most used.

Usually a steepening yield curve following a deep inversion is the most classic indicator of the start of the fall.
