I've seen where hosts on Airbnb require age of 21, 25, or 30 years old for some rentals. Is this legal or even recommended? How are you vetting your guests? What do you say to a group of 8 (your max) who are probably all 18-year-olds who are only verified by phone on Airbnb with no reviews and just having a brand new Airbnb account?

I meant like if a water pipe breaks or the heat goes out

@John Underwood

Ok and what do you do about emergencies, do you ever provide a phone number?

@John Underwood

What should I do about responding to inquiries when I'm sleeping or at my day job?

Your porter/guesty or hostfully?

I currently don't have any software and just acquired one vacation rental property.

If I buy a house and use it as my primary residence for 3 month can I then rent or buy another house and not have to refinance the original one?

Thank you for your comment.

For the numbers you gave in regards to the 14% And 5% that you are investors were making, is that based on yearly rates or a flat rate no matter how long you keep their cash?

How much should I expect a hard money lender or family member to get back on their investment? Investor ROI? In today's market you don't stand a chance if you don't have a cash offer so I'm choosing to buy an investment vacation rental with either family members or hard lenders in order to stand a chance to purchase the deal. How should the deal be arranged if I'm only going to keep their money for 5 months

Thank you all for all of your awesome advice. I found that I will qualify for the homestyle loan as long as I have enough cash for the down payment. Next step is getting a HELOC for the down payment. I've been researching HELOC and found that 3.99% is the lowest I can get. However there are introductory rates as low as 1.9% that I am pursuing right now.

Thank you I did this and found prime lenders who are able to get me the correct loan.
