Hi @Daniel Mills, thanks for the unique perspective.  

Totally unique!

I have a relatively unique financial position and am interested in sourcing financing for my next STR - I'd love your input/experiences with different possibilities.Thumbnail of my situation: I'm a professional in the film/television industry, which by its nature consists of short- to medium-term employment.  

I'm sure my case is unique. 

Heres the scenario:My Father, another partner and myself are looking to acquire a unique property.  

@Anthony Bertolino,My first reaction to this question was that it's unique to the individual, and their needs/wants as well as their ability , both rehab wise, but also financially.. 

Our agent that helped us find this unique property is great. 

And I agree that as I put money into the house I can reduce my taxable income, but that is not unique to real estate.  

Hi, Looking to purchase my first multi-family home (BRRRR), but have had a very unique situation with obtaining the CO.

LOL.. well none of them ever redeemed and I lost interest and frankly forgot about em and lost my 10k.. so that was a 10k self education into understanding that there is much more to this type of investing than meets the eye and its to detailed for someone like me.Now I have done a bunch of tax sale investing and done well at that... but those are auctions you bid you buy you get a deedhowever now with bid 4 assets doing it on line you get all these folks who big this stuff up to past retail so that's no longer very fruitful or fun anymore  :)  at least were I troll for deals.And in my state I think we at the only state in the union that does not do tax sale or tax lien.. and very few properties go.. and if they do go to tax sale they just escheat to the state.. who then sometime in the future sells them off as surplus.and I have seen owners who lost them petition the county supervisors and get the property back.. which I know is very unique.
