If you negotiate a lower purchase price or have faith in the property's long-term value, spending more than the appraisal may still be feasible given the property's high cash flow potential and your experience with the market.

I would greatly appreciate any tips, recommendations, or cautionary tales you can share based on your own experiences.Specifically, I'm interested in learning about different creative financing methods, potential pitfalls to watch out for, and any legal or financial considerations that I should be aware of before proceeding. 

I see potential in this and was raised in homes like these making it in my wheel house. 

Any potential future buyer will have the same problem getting financing as you did.

For my senior project, I am researching the ideal marketing strategy for a hypothetical (but could become real) multi-unit Tiny Home STR property in Malibu, CA (with the potential to generate huge cash flow and long-term equity ;)To graduate, I need a guest from a real estate company to sit in on my final presentation (10 minutes) and to provide brief feedback (3-5 minutes) on Tuesday, April 23rd at 3:00 PM PST on Zoom (15 minutes total).

Obviously we need to do some groundwork with the City planning department and potentially zoning.We are approached constantly by developers seeking to purchase the property for them to develop (everything from we want to build homes to help the environment to building condos for our 98 year old grandmother to live in). 

I appreciate that it is hard to get started in life and you are very young, but that does not excuse creating a false impression online to induce potential investors to "connect" with you.

Made sure it was a great investment What was the outcome?

I’m not sure of the legitimacy or legality of all of this, but it has me looking more closely at this type of business to see if that may be how I need to word my LLC’s services provided for my properties and then potentially grow to provide similar services for others’ properties.

I think this is a creative idea with a lot of potential, though also with some unique issues as mentioned above.
