You really have to stand out from the crowd.I didn't look at your bio or any other posts but - can you house hack an STR? 

I saw a similar post about 7 months ago by "Mike Romano" with a similar question, however I didn't feel like he explained the reason why he was planning to use a HML instead of a standard conventional loan in the first place.

Here's a list of forum posts on "hotels".

One example is that short-term rentals are more of a hospitality business then a property investment.I'm guessing there is more to your comment, but just investing in markets because they are "decently priced," may not get you closer to where you want to go. 2 of my first investment properties were very "decently priced," and had great annual % returns, only to cost me money to sell 18 years after purchasing them (no appreciation on values of rents and required fix-up to sell,, etc).  ....Although, they contributed to my education, they did not directly assist in moving me toward my goals.There are many previous posts in BP (do a search) with good blueprints of how to get clear on your goals.

I found BP through a blog post back in 2017 and it changed my life.

I would post in your listing min credit score as well as min income (i.e. 2.8x rent etc).  

Otherwise, I'll share your post with past clients and see if there's any relatable high-level feedback that I can provide.2.)
