I know that in single families in Cleveland Heights people have put in basement bedrooms with an egress window and they were on formal plans that were submitted to the city and approved. 

When times get tough, people downsize. 

People will tell you that you can do all sorts of things with a property, but they may or may not be correct.

I knew several people who had an undeniably great stretch (probably in that 20% range) until the GR and FC hit them in the face. 

I am very interested in finding partners in my area, specially people who speak Spanish and can offer services in Spanish.Thank you guys for your advices!!!!!!

It can work, but those deals are best done by people with the money who can leverage that fact against the deal to pay more.

Some people even believe that AI will take over the world!

A lot of the popular, no money needed, strategies like being a wholesaler, getting a partner to fund the deal, or STR co-hosting / arbitrage are a bit of a paradox because the people that have the expertise to effectively implement these strategies are typically the experienced folks that don't need no money down strategies to invest.

Tenants are people. 

There’s a few people dabbling with STR property management but nothing that would make a difference.
