I am looking to connect with like minded individuals who can help me with deal flow and adding more doors to my portfolio .

I'd be happy to help and share some of the things we may have done differently. 

Thanks in advance for any help.

This was a major rehab over 6 figures.  

Would be happy to connect and help answer any questions.

This property was the first one I ever worked on with my father.

And I put all quality materials and high end finishes throughout.

Does anyone have any experience relying on home warranties to help cover appliances, etc?

Happy to see if we can help.

The STR deal could be the best option if I understand your situation correctly, except I would probably do this as a cash-out refi and just use the combination of booking history + AirDNA projected income to qualify (if not operated as a STR for a year).
