You (and others) have promoted the idea that a line of credit is identical to cash reserves.

I just hope you’re getting paid to promote the useless stats, at lest then I’d understand your conviction. 

I want to own property that brings in some cash flow that will supplement my current W2 job with the goal of retiring early.  

I find the most profitable short term properties, are promoted to corporate tenants through many specific platforms or long term relationships with businesses executives that have been gained over the years.

I will be making substantially more money and my wife also just got a promotion and raise. 

It also helps that I give them some promotional items (pens and calendars) with my information when they take a pre-employment drug screen. 

Pro sports players are taking pay, and or signing bonuses and promotional pay, in BTC. 

I'm bot compensated by them to promote them but I've used them on over 100 properties the past 18 months.  

The Smokies will always be desirable, and we will be here promoting all those things that make our destination, and your beautiful cabins – the place to be.

If you can't supplement on nursing sites (like furnishedfinder.com) then yes you might have to convert to long term rental come Sept but this would give you the summer to try and make the difference if things open up.
