-if I include a team into finding deals for me like agents and brokers will I still be able to cash flow?

Things I would ask them:What is your involvement in your own deals, day in and day out?  

I curently own 2 STR's and manage 4 others for a total of 6 units under management,.

@Vinessa EiseleInteresting negotiating skills.I have lenders who will allow seconds on DSCR loans, but the "seller financed" part is limited to 15%, whereas the borrower must bring at least 10% of their own funds to the deal. 

@Jason Hanson depends on if you are managing your own properties or managing properties for others...

I'm a partner in an Independent Agency that represents Steadily along with many other companies. 

Also find out how much of their own $ they have invested in the deal.

Hi Anne,It all depends on your own goals, if you really believe in the area, have done the work and have come to a conclusion that your money is used best in an asset here, then do it.Theres no reward without any risk.

Would I rather own an AirBNB in Galveston for the next five years where a permit currently costs $250 a year and a correctly bought deal can still perform exceptionally, or in NYC where I can no longer operate now and for the foreseeable future?

If you want my agent, PM
