Seeking Advise on Getting Owner Occupied in SLC
19 February 2019 | 5 replies
I live a few hours from SLC currently in South east Idaho, but have flexibility to travel down/fix up a place if I get it during the summer.Options: 1) Find a multi-unit, put some sweat equity into it and house hack for two years then rent out the owner occupied side when/if we leave Utah in two years.2) Find a single family, 3bdr, fix it up over the two years, then sell or rent when/if we leave Utah in two years.3) Invest the cash and just rent for two years.I’d love to do options 1 or 2, I’m prepared to do the leg work, but I want to get the communities opinion/advise.

As others have mentioned, it's generally much easier to do a cash out refinance on a rental property, although you do lose the flexibility of draws vs a lump sum and immediate interest payments.

This also gives you all the flexibility you need to either pay more each month in order to pay the loan off faster, or save any extra money to make future investments.I didn't read any of the other comments prior to writing this, but all the other posts here are post on as well.

Short term vs. long term vacation rentals

My two cents, (and an interesting, debatable topic) it depends...I agree, if you have someone long term, they don't necessarily want to be next to unknown tenants...however, sometimes the stability of long term renting is good..and the flexibility of short term is good for owners who want to use......For instance, we're in a seasonal resort town.
