Hey @Jaycee GreeneI'm not looking to become a lender :) However, my background is in software (startups and big tech like Google, etc) so I'm interested in learning how specific pain points that I've encountered as a borrower could be solved and that requires a bit of diving deep on both lender and borrower sides!

But what we don’t always see are the hard parts: the work, the mistakes, the learning curves, and the growing pains that come with starting and running any business.I’m realizing that the success stories are inspiring, but the challenges behind them are just as important.

Would I still be able to cancel for a situation like this due to not having enough funds and get my earnest money back? 

I am wondering if LLC for each property , which is a total PAIN in the tookas or LLC for all properties in that county or state and the money, the rents etc flow to a s corp?

They had to come back a couple of times under the guaranteed to seal additional places, but now its been a long time since any mice have gotten into the house. 

For example:Finding reliable boots-on-the-ground supportAccurately projecting rehab numbers or rental ratesCoordinating leasing/turnovers long-distanceTrusting contractors/vendorsUnderstanding local landlord requirements or city-specific inspectionsI’m really interested in hearing the real-world pain points (positive or negative) from people who have tried it or are actively doing it.

Markets eventually come back stronger and higher and more importantly more profitable than before.  

Quote from @Leslie Stouffer: I am looking at a second house in the market where I have my first STR (Charlottesville, VA), but this one has been demoed, but still needs all the insides put back in.  

It all comes down to back-end funding appetite for the product.- My guess is they have enough funding sources and track record to be competitive in the marketplace, but ultimately supply and demand will dictate what they can offer

You need to step back and do the accurate analysis.
