Hey DenisI have commented a lot about arbitrage in a general sense here, however I believe I am uniquely qualified to answer here as I live and operate about 65 units in this specific market.In 2016 I got my STR start arbitraging a Gulf Front mansion that was in foreclosure and I got a great deal on. 

i'm just saying - that doesn't rise to the level of meriting "partnership." 

You could also try looking up money judgements filed against local businesses at the magistrate level and target them with direct mail or driving for dollars. 

I'm trying to analyze my first property and not sure how to set it up to run the number using the calculator tools here. 2 of the units are successful Airbnb short term rentals, and the other two units are month to month rentals to existing tenants.

For experienced investors who have done 5+ similar rehab projects, I can lend up to 100% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab on light 1-4 unit rehabs. 

Frank, For a rookie investor with low capital looking to build a rental portfolio, the best strategy is house hacking: buy a small multi-family home with a low down payment (FHA or conventional loan), live in one unit, and rent the others to cover your mortgage.

all of the units were updated except one, which I did put alittle money into to bring it update to date with the others, so that would have helped the value a bit I would think almost a year later. 

They’ll have a strong network and be more in tune with the opportunities available in the rental market, whether you're interested in single-family homes or multi-unit buildings.If you're focusing on single-family homes, try to keep them within the same area.

Ask how many units they manage and how much experience they have.

I recently came across 1 acre asking for 314k in a very good residential and growing location, so the current owner has added 4 manufactured homes with 4 electrical meters, 4 septic tanks and only 1 water meter for all 4 homes, the homes are sitting on partial slab and partial pier & beam, he also added 2 storage sheds approx. 380sqft with the intention to make them ADUs they are still only the shell so I would have to get those ready to live in, so currently the 4 manufactured homes are being rented and bringing in 2800k a month, 3 of the homes are needing some TLC which could increment rents and possibly get me at 3600k a month, also being a 1ac lot this still leaves about 12,000sqft of raw land where you could build etc.So that is on the good side now the things I did not like so much, the lay out is poorly executed to where it makes it looked crammed up and not professional but it could be fixed.Another is that in reality there is only 4 livable units so that qualifies under a conventional loan but since they're are 6 units on the property the banks are wanting to take it as a commercial so we would have to move out the 2 storage sheds out in order to close as conventional.Another concern, technically you are only allowed to have one manufactured house or single wide in your property according to what I know but I know it could change according to zoning which I will investigate, so my question is has all this been accounted for and if so how can I verify it so it wont leave me in a bind further down the road, I currently asked my agent for the appraisal of the property to see if that might verify.Any recommendations?
