Now, these outfits hire lots of influencers and affiliates, with no expertise, no financial background, and apparently limited ethics, to put it kindly.

We made light investments in guest room makeovers, outfitting each room with a Queen + Twin XL bunks. 

Nothing wrong with being an agent, but like others have said..an agent will have way more resources, credibility, for commercial real estate.If you raised money and portrayed yourself as a professional investment firm, kind of like a mini hedge fund, and networked with owners and professionals, and end up getting a deal because now you're  a real buyer with money, and you flip that property to another outfit or individual at a large mark-up..that's what I always considered wholesaling.The problem with all of this is, commercial owners are smart, commercial buyers are smart, very smart and will see through BS immediately.So a buyer may see what you're doing, but, if you got a really good deal, and it has re-positioning opportunity, value-adds, then they will buy. 

I would make strong connections with foresters and logging outfits.

Furnishings and outfitting run about $20/ft professional but if you DIY at $15 and its 1,500 sq ft $22,500.AirDNA has the property at $65,000 Annual Gross.

:)There are always some kind of good deal on furniture out there and I just have to pass because I am not currently looking to outfit another STR and I have no space.I would love to have a 10k sqft warehouse to store stuff when I find it so I have it @Patricia Andriolo-Bull

You also have to think about outfitting common spaces, how your going to do that, and how your going to do it in a way that keeps the "village" happy and nice with everyone.

To do MTR, you would need to fully furnish it and outfit it for convenience and then get it on Furnished Finder on your own to make it work.

When speaking to the rep, i asked questions about Morris Invest and how they felt about being represented by this fraudulent outfit.

Does it come fully furnished and ready to go or do you need to outfit the place?
