Hello,I am interested in purchasing a short term rental in the Ludlow, VT market but am struggling to cash flow in my analysis.

1/1 are struggling right now in most markets.

HUD guidance says it could fit five people, but the septic system is old and struggles to keep up with two people, especially after a heavy rain.

We are wanting to scale and struggling with how to eat the elephant here ; )

I am struggling trying to decide my next step- should I try to pay down my two current properties that I own as much as I can (I make about 150-200k a year).

I am struggling to find the right option for a HELOC on my second home in Northern Michigan.

If you're struggling to get started and don't know where to look, I'd highly recommend doing a house hack. 

The furnaces are working but have not been updated in 20+ years, one A/C unit is being replaced this week, and the other needs to be done at some point, it struggled to keep up in the south facing room last year.

The 203k is NOT your normal rehab project because of the nuances, unique paperwork, timelines, payment structure, etc. that normal contractors struggle with. 

@Bruce Lynn, while I am guessing because I don't know "most" large multifamily, I would say it is very much manager dependent and likely to become more common place as many syndicators are struggling to make their mortgage payments.Ownership companies are still run by people, and people that don't have enough money to pay their bills will start prioritizing who to pay based on the perceived risks of not paying.As for taking over any outstanding bills, that is one of many issues of the common LLC transfer.
