The later approach is infinitely more scale-able and results in cheaper cars for the consumer.

Price may be the factor, but if you the only marketing is a "for rent" sign taped inside a window, then people likely don't even know they are available.That being said, if there is a healthy ad spend and lots of eyes are hitting the listings, then you are back to price.  

As a bonus, you will be adding a healthy balance and cash flow to your investment portfolio.

Some of our early summer guests got a steal as my pricing model was less than optimal. let me share some observations and thoughts, pros and cons, do's and don'ts on the larger property model for you to consider.1: Large groups for STVR is a very real and very healthy market. 

That equates to healthy rents.

.- The size of the loan (pre-2008 it was based on your interest rate, terms/conditions of the loan, etc, generally the worse the loan was for the consumer, the more revenue it generated... now it's just the size of the loan).So if we can give you a bigger loan that can also still be sold to Fannie Mae, why wouldn't we? 

Thanks in advance, and stay healthy out there!

@Jon Schwartz let me say kudos to both of you for a very healthy conversation!

My job consumes a lot of my time and if I look up the ladder I can tell it's only going to get worse if I continue to advance in my career. 

she dug Your Money or Your Life, and is currently reading 4 hour work week. she's really digging it, and we're already starting to make lifestyle plans for our future. the problem for real estate investing, is that we did the dave ramsey class together, and she's huge on not being in debt. she's struggled to get out of it in the past, and has only her student loans left. assuming the world doesn't end, haha, she'll be out of debt in about 12-16 months, and still in her early 20s. when i try to explain the difference between "good" debt that creates more income than it costs, and "bad" debt that doesn't create income, or appreciation. consumer debt vs business debt. that kind of thing... it doesn't really click tho, and she's still hesitant. she's a w2 earner (i'm a 1099) with decent income, so she could easily land an FHA loan and lock in a house hack within the next year, allowing her to save/invest tons of money and kick the whole thing off even faster. i would love to present this to her in a way that doesn't seem forced, or "i'm right you're wrong do it my way". i want her to really get it on her own, to understand the power that real estate has to change your life. anyone else dealt with this before?
