Quote from @Scott Wolf:
@Finnegan O'Connor, do you plan on occupying the property? If so, many HML's and DSCR firms won't lend on owner-occupied properties. If not, that plan will work if the asset cash-flows well.
If you have two years of tax returns showing profit, you may still be able to qualify for traditional funding to buy such a property, if you do intend to occupy it.
Thank you Scott for the insight! I would plan on occupying the existing house to be onsite managing the construction and running of the operation

Hey all! Looking for some feedback on my financing plan for my first STR property
Background info:
I have just graduated from college, where I ran a business for the last two years, and am going to continue doing that as it is making way more than I ever could in a construction PM job (what I studied for). That does not leave me with a w2, but a healthy amount of liquid cash through the business. (I have set aside $75-100k for this)
What I want to do:
I would like to buy an existing property with a house or possibly just land and convert it into a short-term rental with multiple units and possibly a wedding/events venue ( I have an entire business plan for this and the project has the approval from the town council).
My funding plan:
Use a hard money loan to buy the property and the renovation/building of the units, then refi into a DSCR loan
