Hey @Isaiah Cortez, here are the deets on STRs via the city - https://www.fortlauderdale.gov/government/departments-a-h/de...I don't have any real insights on the area, but do a search and you will find some details.

And this is a biggee wading through the fake lenders or the Joker brokers that tell you what you want to hear  but cant get the deals funded and you lose the deal and a lot of money.3. with actual PML  private people  usually have very limited funds so cant scale with them.. they can have a life event and just stop doing loans all together..

Intent is one of the biggest ones, frequency is another. 

@Brittney Yang surprisingly I have found that I can have glue down LVP installed by a local flooring company, we use Artisent Floors, https://artisentfloors.com/, for our local renovations and they are awesome and they can do it for less than what I can buy the product for at Lowes or HD even with my 10% military discount! 

.: Someone asked me about a Due on Sale suit I was involved in and it reminded me of the many encounters I've had with trying to buy pre-foreclosures and do SubTo.Some of these brutes are big, ugly, scary, mean and volatile.

I asked a lender company through BiggerPockets to call me.

Here is my Cliff Notes on this elaborate example:If you have unused losses from the past, they might significantly soften the tax blow from a profitable sale.I don't see how this is called "strategic play" or "premium lemonade."

Both investments can offer tax benefits, but real estate typically has the edge.

@Alev G.I'm in the market in Reno, Sparks, and Tahoe and I have seen some very strong appreciation over the last year.

To maximize my cashflow and gain landlording experience, I’d do STR and MTR in the other units, as well as the other bedrooms in my unit.
