Hmmm, broad subject for a forum.

Instead of starting out trying to anticipate the worst end of the financing spectrum, spend your time developing knowledge and skills that will allow you in a couple years to obtain the best financing in your area.

That is a very broad question.

On one end of the spectrum you have conventional lenders looking to lend to qualified buyers at low single digit rates for long term loans.

Since EDDM campaigns is a broad target area without any specific target market, the phone calls hasn't been ringing as much as we thought/.

This can be all over the spectrum of options, I would think.  

I am launching an STR in Broad Brook CT and would love to know who your attorney is to get similar advice.

@John Zaranti - that is an extremely broad question. 

But the problem with wanting something a lot of other people want is that the prices are getting up there.Some people really like working class / C type areas because they feel the tenant base is lifetime tenants (not going to move out and buy a house any time soon), and they get a better $/return in those areas, but other people feel the management hassles in those areas aren't worth it and prefer B or even A type areas.So depending on where you fall on that spectrum, as well as your budget, may dictate some of the potential areas in RI.

Such a broad open question is a lot to ask of people to answer.
