I made an offer on a property today, but unfortunately, it was not accepted.

Acquired for $100,000 with a projected resale value of $267,500 after $73,000 in renovations, the property offered excellent returns.

Not to mention cash tenants these days are ridiculously high risk!

Looking for insight/opinion on investing in STRs in highly seasonal resort towns.

As I browsed around looking into these markets the prices are appealing, but it jumps out quickly that they have high crime rates.

I would like to make him an offer of seller financing or conventional mortgage and show how the seller financing could be a better deal but I'm not sure how to go about offering that.

If so in about 24 hours I will give you an offer IF we can get in.
