I am not sure if it's just a general trend of people going offline en masse, or a sign of waning interest in wholesale discussion since a lot of bad rep is associated with it.

I have access to others of like mind that can help me put syndicates together to purchase larger apartments.Outside of real estate, I'm busy as a CFO to a large dental practice that my husband owns that brings in capital for us to invest in RE... and I love taking care of my girls that are 16, 13, and 9 and teaching them all about passive income investing via RE.

I didn't make much money, but the most valuable aspect of the experience for me was learning how to find crafts people, acting as my own general contractor, and then learning what order in which to do repairs and improvements.

I know some STR investor people from Cincinnatti who are investing into the Red River Gorge (Slade, rogers, campton) area.

I'd like to add a legal bed and bath down there to get higher rents and bring the property value up, so that I can refi and get most/all of the money back that I use on the updgrade. 

The reality is people are making money in virtually every market.

I hear a lot of investors complaining about the Philly market and saturation in specific pockets, but early there are still people making money on these deals. 

So many people never move past analysis!

did they want both people on the loans to live on site?

You could also instead: get a construction loan and buy a fixer home with no ADU and you build it yourself. usually - I see people buying a home like this for $650k to $700k and then adding the ADU for $100k where you end at $750k to $800k with a well renovated home!
