Everywhere I have traveled this year, New York, Paris etc Hotels are much cheaper than VRBO/AIRBnB and the experience and safety, location, quality of beds, bathroom fixtures are better at Hotels, but 5-10 years ago it was the opposite.

I can analyze a deal, but don't have experience with section 8.

Hi Ali, The good news is because you have experience there are loan products designed especially for investors that require NO personal income or tax returns.

This would be my first time looking to do a $0 down investment property and I am looking to seek advice from those who have experience with similar financing. 

This experience reinforced the importance of aligning renovation efforts with market expectations and demonstrated our ability to maximize returns even in low-cost investments.

Is there any company’s that you can suggest that you have had good experiences with and trust or maybe another strategy of managing a long distance STR.

@Casey Adams @Clint Jusino there are lenders that will go up to 80% LTV on a cash out depending on state, FICO, level of experience, etc and some have NO required seasoning if you have done rehab to justify the increase in value.

Please give details of your experience please.

The rental is priced over $2000/month, which move much slower in general hereFYI - you should definitely speak with folks in the market you choose who have knowledge and experience firsthand for that rental market. 

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.
