I’ve been told that you just have to be persistent even to the point where it’s annoying to get noticed, even had one guy tell me that he would go around telling a real estate brokers or other people in the field that he would work for them for free.

So, Brandon, if your capital reserves are 150kish, I would really think about doing some BRRRRs or Flips even to generate cash cause that 150k will be sucked up in 2 - 3 deals, instead you can use 150k to scale and never be out of the game.I wouldn't rush to infuse 100% of the capital in two holds. 

But if you can save the 25%, that's often enough to take it from a break even to a decent profit.

It's possible what you have done on your own isn't even to code or done correctly so you could be losing value if you haven't been careful.It's great that you took action.

First good old politicking, find all of the other owners who can vote and see if they will agree to vote with you to allow STR or even to amend the bylays. 

As we underwrite, new, small multifamily developments, and lot splits we are seeing that there are cash flow rental opportunities that we’re not there before.For example, a 1200 square-foot house on a .2 acre lot is now able to be turned into a 2, 3 or four unit small multi family with opportunities even to add an ADU to the back of the property.

And yes, we are crunching the numbers to see if our cash flow is positive or at least break even to consider the purchase.

The second thing I will say is that you as the buyer have to do your due diligence throughout the whole buying process, even to go to the property and make sure a tenant is vacated prior to closing the deal.. 

I am at the point where I think the ARV will be good enough to do a cash out refi and have no money in the deal but slightly cash flow neg or break even to start out

If you are considering getting rid of them anyway try to move some of the reservations to your own Direct Booking or even to Airbnb if you can provide a savings to the client.
