Real Estate Strategies

I have a private sale opportunity and am looking for guidance on using the VTB strategy with the seller.

What information do I need to gather?
Do investors use a worksheet to plug in numbers? Can someone share that with me.
What would I present to the seller that is logical and beneficial to both of us if I plan to come in under their asking price and/or 90% financing?
Not sure I want to involve an agent. What do you think?

Thanks...Ken

Im curious how you run numbers on your short term rentals, if they are vacation rentals vs city short term rentals. For example, I use different numbers for each of mine. To analyze my cottages, I go with 90% occupancy high season, 50% mid and 20% for low season and then above that is gravy. For the others ill use airdna then also look at other comparable listings and then use my own data over the past 6 months then again for the past 12 months to extrapolate. What are some of the ways you look and analyze your occupancy rates on short and mid term rentals?

What is the process to become an investor? Is there a minimum amount?

How much equity have you had to personally raise to build towards your current business? BTW what is your current portfolio worth? (as an inspiration) Where are you in Costa Rica?

How does one get a 'lift' on the property purchase within a reasonable time frame in order to be able to refinance and redeploy your capital?

You mentioned incentives from buyers. I believe you said 3-year free management - any other incentives?
