Several years ago when the low flow toilets came out, some just didn't work well at all.

Also, what are some other low cost amenities that I can add to my STR that will yield a higher ROI?

Quote from @Carlyn Chism:I agree with Chris on a lender that might be a scam or make you may so much money interest because of the low credit score that you make $1.00 on the flip or no money.  

Specifically, I am looking at partnering with an individual who owns securities (stock and mutual funds) having them take out a line of credit against their portfolio (SBLOC) at a low interest rate, and using that to purchase properties rather than using a mortgage.

With EPIC theme park opening in a few months, this area is seeing bookings pick up, but it is a very competitive and crowded market.

I just wanted to get some confirmation from BP crowd.

We want to plan in the most tax vantaged ways (which includes keeping future AGI as low as possible) and open to new-age and creative concepts.Respectfully ask to keep discussion to topic vs. selling one's self or services seeking new business.

Typically if you attend any investor meetings about 1/2 the crowd in many groups are agents looking for business.If you want to network, try service clubs, alumni groups, charities, religious groups, hobby groups or whatever interests you. 

However, that being said, it's just as important to make your flips and developments stand out from the crowd!

While the current conditions may feel challenging, they also present opportunities to fine-tune your strategy and stand out in a crowded market.Are you experiencing these trends in your portfolio?
