Still sleeps 8 but will allow you two families. secondly and more importantly make sure your bathrooms match sleeping rooms, this is a deal breaker on all str that we purchase and has been proven time and again. 3 bed needs to be 3 bath thank you for the great thoughts. 3 bathroom or 2.5 bathroom is rare in this part of california unless it's a bigger house, like 4+ bedrooms. it's an important thing to note, tho: i hadn't thought of that, but if i offer to sleep 8 instead of six, yes, 2 bathrooms is not great. thank you for the insight! 

This approach puts me in competition with smaller, local investors rather than in oversaturated tourist-heavy markets, offering a better ROI.

@Ryan Holtz the Midwest offers many cities that will lead to cashflow on a purchase with 20-2% down.The challenge is YOU understanding the differences between Class A, B & C, so you invest wisely and your expectations are met.You'll probably want to target Class B or C for cashflow, but make SURE you understand the pro & con differences.

I've studied 100s of offerings, probably 300 or more. 

For example, the costs to obtain the mortgage are typically amortized over the life of the loan.Real estate also offers expenses that do not involve cash coming out of your pocket. 

Both offer great Sub2/Creative finance communities. 

It all depends on the circumstances as to how much.2) Even then, tenants in Los Angeles have free legal services.

On top of that, you'll have your own dedicated unit which will offer more privacy compared to sharing a single-family home with tenants.

I would look into the syndication world as that will 1, probably be the best legal structure and 2, will teach you how to raise the money.
