The Mortgage Shop (https://mortgage.shop/) is a great place to get started for lending, they offer a wide array of products and are very knowledgable about STR.In regard to insurance, I also recommend reaching out to someone that is familiar with the STR space. 

Borrowers have been experiencing the Horrendous and Crippling effects of Over Regulation Nation via the Dodd Frank Act, just ask anyone who has closed or tried to close on a loan over the past years.Even though some banks are now starting to look at 1-4 units, if purchased in the name of an LLC for Business Use Only (i.e. 12 month of more rental), as Commercial (not subject to Dodd Frank Act), the vast majority of Banks do not and are implementing very strict lending guidelines on 1-4 units.Therefore, from a "Borrowing" side and if you need flexibility, you may want to stick with 5 units or more.Investors have loan options at 75% LTVs or higher CLTVs in the upper 4% range with 30yr amortizations on these type of Commercial properties.Hope this helps.

They claim there are certain tax benefits to this structure as well and that this system is vastly superior to the traditional banking one. 

And that can be printed, but the vast majority of money is *loaned into existence*. 

For the vast majority of people, their passive income flows through to their personal return where they will pay taxes on it at their marginal rate.

We are faced with challanges that are so vastly different than ever before, going back to how it was in the good old days (when exactly was that anyway??)

I do find that the vast majority of unrepresented sellers and buyers just want to cheat and get the work done for free or at the expense of the party that is paying. 

And I know its not the vast majority on BP s method of investing..
