The ideal purchase is a distressed low-density residential or commercial property which requires full redevelopment or renovations. The target market is within or close to major US metros close to downtown CBDs, well-known attractions, or travel desitnations. 

Once the full redevelopment or renovations are completed, the newer condition means less renovations, greater revenue, and forced appreciation. 

All properties are bought based on the metric that it will be refinanced at 70% LTV, qualifying for conventional financing and keeping risk low.

Guests want cool and comfortable places to stay. The goal for all rentals is to land on the Design pages of listing channels.
