Airbnb to me is more like a hotel room and I wouldn't want the turn over or headache of constant cleaning the unit. 

Is the common practice at all the real estate meet up groups (constant pitching people looking for angles?)

It took me 2 years of being constantly active in the market to find the house that I am in now.

The situation where it hurts you is if your loan constant is higher than cap rate. 

From what I see, people dont plan for DTI or DCR calculations in advance with their tax returns or how they buy their properties so what happens is their acquisition strategy does not jive with their capital strategy (debt in this case) so their business is in constant funk with ups and downs or they end up having to use hard money and alternative financing techniques (JV's, lease options, etc).

@Michael Volek I always try to remember that life is a constant series of risk analysis decisions.  

I'm constantly trying to hone in on the operations of how things need to flow in my business.

Constantly changing regs make it hard to keep up granted.

However, my wife is still active duty, meaning that we are constantly moving.In fact, we're moving to CA in just a couple months but will only there for a little over a year.

Constantly studying.
