@Jay Hinrichs, although as you state AirBnB is just a broker, the success of the network is affected by the actions of all individual STR owners.  

Are the units individually metered? 

Here's what I would do, step by step:I'd hop on BiggerPockets, go the the Houston sub-Forum, and find at least three members who seem to know what they are doing (based upon their profile and their posting history there).I would direct message (DM) each of the members I found and ask if they had a quick minute to give me some perspective on this listing.I'd arrange for individual phone calls.

I have raised money before, but its always been from investors that I know on an individual project basis. 

Regardless,  the government is doing a damn good job of stepping up to provide everyone with more than enough subsidy (both individuals and businesses) to get through this situation.  ($600 +  unemployment for months? 

What do you all think we should do:- combine the parcels and just get a bigger loan (total would probably be around 285-300k for the loan) in order to get the cash out (about 40k)- leave it until the taxes are reassessed (probably 3.5k less then I would calculate) - refinance as individual properties-other option we are not thinking of?

I have calculated the rehab costs and vetted each individual deal to the best of my ability.

Since I have a high-risk tolerance, I'd probably invest in mostly individual stocks and some ETFS/index funds. 

Ultimately with the sellers financial situation, this house will go to foreclosure in the next few months and I want to see if anyway I can help this individual out and make a deal.House value: ~320kMortgage 1 on house: 130kMortgage 2 on house: 30kIRS lien: ~120kchild support lien: ~40kThe child support lien I know is not negotiable.

It was done by city, not by individual.
