I've done extensive research into the options and a lot of the paid options seem to focus on teaching specific investment methods.

that was not a method that Armando taught in the seminars I attended these were strickly how to find BRRR props and rehab them and then resell or refi and keep.. the Markets we worked were Vegas and Orlando and Frankly those investors who actually bought property doubled their money or more with the deals i funded for them and they bought on their own it was 2011 to 2013 which as we know was a prime buying time and had to hand it to Armando he picked two of the best Markets.. 

But I am so intrigued with the BRRRR method just not sure this is the one for that.

Take for example the lack of productivity where construction projects often experience time and cost overruns, rework or quality concerns. 

If you ask nicely and promise not to share, you can usually get good financial information on the properties that are currently operating as a STR.If you're just starting out looking, you may not be aware of just how many cabins out there are poor quality builds due to the lack of codes.

You haven't given many details so it's difficult to give you a quality answer for your situation.

However The barrier to entry in the REI teaching business is very low and a lot of bad players join the game.What you describe led me to come up with Ned's Rule of Gurus.The quality of an REI course is inversely proportional to the price

That could mean poor tenant quality, which could lead to them not paying or eviction.

Someone will reach out to you. split direct mail cost with the best, pursue other marketing methods with the person.

After about a month of no response on FF I switched my method to LTR.
