While the bank may have facilitated the transfer without issue, updating the title is still important for legal and liability reasons, particularly for tax and asset protection purposes associated with LLC ownership.The title company has indicated they can handle the title change process, which typically involves filing paperwork with the appropriate local government office, such as the county recorder or registrar of deeds.

Hi Eli, A few different ways: 1) You can ask your realtor to put you on a drip campaign for any assumable loans in the areas you desire. 2) If you are looking at something off-market you can ask your realtor to work with their title company of choice to pull lists of all government loans, in whatever areas you are looking for.

But in the right areas if you have one or two good STRs it's better than a government pension.

All my rentals are in Kansas in a city that David Greene like to pick on as his Midwest scapegoat (although his criticism isn't totally unfounded, a company there did just land an over $1 Billion government contract so I am happy with my city choice).
