For one thing, you are assuming property management is easy, and you have all of the required knowledge, skills, and abilities to successfully navigate everything from privacy and fair housing laws, to unit turnovers, advertising, showing, screening, rent collections, accounting, evictions, and providing 24/7 maintenance. 

If so, how did you navigate it?

I did consider pre payment penalty but that would be easy to navigate.

I'd love to hear from those with experience on how you would navigate the situation.

Has anyone worked with a lender who can navigate these waters?  

Still new in navigating the platform.

I have trouble believing that a person who owns a smartphone, and rents on Turo can’t operate the GPS.

However on the flip side there are many many very successful investors on this site.... its just navigating those that are all talk and no action or ... those that are just scammers plain and simple.. the scammers hammer this site on the lending side...

Bill Gulley LOL every pilot has gotten lost pre GPS direct -> just follow the magenta line...when I was getting my instrument rating I would never fly the airplane that had the ADF in it..

Some pointers for you: The "Learn" link across the top navigation bar has lots of great info, and so do BP members!
