When people is asking to compare syndication vs DST it means it's totally newbie question too sorry too say.I would say the DST is more structured like an REIT, it's the Mercedez Benz of Commercial Real Estate.In syndication it's more like Fast-and-Furious drifting car haha, some of the operators really wild wild west, they are running with DSCR 0.6x to succumb investor's money.

This preference for city living has fueled demand for urban condos, lofts, and apartments, driving revitalization efforts in downtown areas and contributing to the development of mixed-use communities that combine residential, retail, and commercial spaces.Emphasis on Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: Millennials are more environmentally conscious than previous generations, placing a high value on sustainability, energy efficiency, and eco-friendly features when choosing a home.

Low priced houses, low quality tenants, low quality property managers, low quality contractors. 

I am a local broker and vacation rental manager here on the Island. 16 years here on the Island only.

Does STR self management make sense (from a tax offset for W2 income) without accelerated depreciation? 

I self-manage all my homes and the added workload from my current 18 SFH to adding 17 more "doors" could be substantial.        

I'll also assume your 35k net operating income number is solid.Easiest way would be to self finance the rehab, then get a commercial mortgage on the finished property.

Hi everyoneDoes anyone have experience with setting up & managing a fund or syndication focused on flipping homes?

This is also why people who put properties in a LLC and self manage think they are good - well if you as the pm do something you are the pm so you get sued so you end up liable…

In my opinion, it is the BEST strategy for first timers - you get the buying experience, the property management experience, and you get to start building equity right away (especially if you live in Denver).
