As a Pacific Northwest native, I’ve seen firsthand how the region’s unique blend of natural beauty, vibrant cities, and year-round attractions make it an incredible place for short-term rental (STR) investments.

As a local Colorado loan officer, I’ve worked with clients on projects throughout the Denver metro and I know how tricky the approval process can be.

I bought each of my cabins for income and a long-term store of value.

Hey @John FriendasI have purchased 4 of my Co-Living (rent by room) properties with DSCR, 1 of them within the last few months.Not that I necessarily recommend this, but there are short-term-rental DSCR products.

Also underwrite deals as if they were going to be a long term rental and then work up to an STR.

Quote from @Drew Clayton: I need advice on how to handle the transition my long-term rentals to a new property manager when my current one won't return calls, emails, or texts. 

The best next step is to define your investment goals—whether it's house hacking, long-term rentals, or flips—and start networking with local investors in Houston.
