We have opted for a hybrid approach - LPs who want to pay for access can get an exclusive network, privately discuss operators, privately review and see other LP reviews of sponsors, and discuss "red flag" sponsors. 

Either way, you need to take the legal steps to obtain exclusive possession. 

I exclusively operate in Cook County.

Why don’t I purchase a house under my LLC then overtime sell it to my personal retirement IRA at a discounted rate.

I wouldn't call that a true "DSCR Loan" - especially considering that a ground-up construction property won't have any cash flow so DSCR would be negative or 0 numerator if you'd try to calculate it ground up multifamily is not 0 cashflow there are hundreds of thousands of apartments built every year, leased up, and sold for a profit as well. we build not only at a discount for investors but 1% on infill lots I'd be really careful with all your absolutes. you can get land for 10k in columbus on lots you can build 2-4 units on in one of the cheapest construction markets in the country.

If this is the case, and you are still trying to cut her out, then it's evident that you're trying to get a discounted deal. 

Referals are always great, you could provide current tenants a discount for anyone they get to sign.

I learned the hard way that things can go wrong quickly, and if you don't have cash in place, you might be forced to sell at a discount.

@Scott Glozzy To optimize your STR as a mid-term rental during the offseason (Oct-Mar), set a 30-day minimum stay on Airbnb and offer a monthly discount.

Before you charge anything, reach out and get your discounts.
