It is a very difficult area to operate in because of limited service providers, home quality, and the increase in supply, and big drop in demand. 

Hi everyone my name is Jakob, I have a Bachelor of Commerce specializing in real estate and three successful short-term rental properties, I'm excited to grow my portfolio by venturing into the long-term rental market here in St Pete.St.

hard money lenders generally specialize in loaning on distressed properties and including the rehab in the loan. 

Hi Julie, I'm happy to provide you a contact feel free to send me a message. 

Haven't ever shared it publicly but hey, why not, maybe you or the community will find a way to improve upon it or provide some feedback.  

We specialize in financing hotels/motels.

They provide no real protection at all for the borrower/contractor relationship.So, if your house had some plumbing work that was done, and your contractor did not pull permits and they did not have the city inspect the work, then when you go to sell the house you will get caught and they will tell you that they need to open the walls to inspect the plumbing and then closing the walls and repainting are on you.The draw process is way too easy, I've learned that it is sooooo worth paying your personal inspector like $100 to do a deep inspection. 

To clarify, we do provide both short-term FNF and long-term DSCR financing to first time investors.

Your return on equity is very low based on those numbers provided so yes, some action needs to take place whether it be adding square footage, new construction, or 1031ing.

Also wondering if any one can give us suggestions on providing/offering health insurance.
