@John Brown Running a short-term rental (STR) on a subleased property, often called rental arbitrage, is feasible but requires careful planning.

In the meantime, if rental income is able to pay for the cost of the mortgages then I frankly do not really care what the interest rates are.

You can certainly own multiple assets in the same LLC, but I would be careful about operating a business and owning other real estate or investments in that LLC.

We specialize in single family homes, condos, townhouses, and select small multi family homes.

Our 8-unit buildings have one roof, one foundation, and one structure to take care of.

I went with Cornerstone Davis Kangas took care of the 1031 exchange.

As others have stated, your fit & finish goals should be guided by whether you plan to:1) Rent: tenants don't always take care of a property, so you want to use lower-grade materials and workmanship.2) Flip: higher quality on workmanship and materials is usually required.Regardless, you always want to "Maintain to the Neighborhood".

Where would somebody find such a person that even gave a care???? 

Was able to get some money from cares-aide.

By staying informed and adaptable, investors can find opportunities in both booming and challenging markets.Overall, with careful planning, thorough research, and a strategic mindset, real estate investing can be a fulfilling journey towards financial success and stability.
