Regardless of the different answers/approaches, I am trying to get insight into what the more seasoned multifamily investors are using for their checklist to identify their ideal property.

For example, we have several beach front homes that were purchased specifically for renting to short term renters, the larger of these homes command $10,000 per week in the peak season. 

One of the problems with single season rentals is there is simply not enough available days to get the returns unless the ADRs are really high.

I have no seasoning refinance so I love seller finance deals

To be honest, it is a part emotional purchase because we plan to go in the off season/when not booked. 

What kind of seasonal fluctuation do you experience?

@Sean LairdBanks will usually have a seasoning requirement to do a cahsout refi based on the new value after rehab.Seasoning requirement is usually one year of ownership.If you work with an alternative source you can get a cashout refi after 30 days of ownership based on the new value after rehab.Banks will take longer to do the deal may offer a low rate but not the best terms.Alternative source offer more flexible loans and rates vary based on loan type, ltv, dscr, credit, but they dont require tax returns.

Also, how do account for seasonality when searching Airbnb listings?
