Or invest in a larger MF deal?

I recently became the director of sales at my company and have been tasked with finding investors to help raise capital for my company to scale at a much faster rate.

An important part of your task will be to try to figure out which bank department and individual you need to talk to.If the owner has vacated the property, I think your chances of finding him and convincing him to cooperate will be slim. 

Also, when you are new, figuring out the paperwork is no easy task as you really don't know squat at that point.

This raise was 50% larger than my previous one.

Califonia has provided 100% unpaid rents to be paid to landlords up to $10,000 per unit lots of larger 100 plus unit properties are using this program to assist any of their Tenants they want to keep.

Because of this, if you wanted to operate at a full 90% capacity, you would have to live in the property at least 37 days a year, again with proof of that to provide if necessary.Another thing to note is that you are not able to have a property manager manage the STR for you, it all has to be done by you, which can be a pretty big task.

However, like you’ve mentioned; the legal hurdles seem like a steep hill and will require many regulations change (which I do believe will happen with mass adoption from banks/larger institutions). 

For our first step in this world, we're looking to move into a larger single family home soon and rent our current condo.

We'd like to ultimately move into a larger single family home and rent our current condo.We bought a 2 bedroom condo in 2014 for $160k (15yr mortgage) and have now outgrown it.
