Your question has been debated between BP tax experts both privately and publicly, for example here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/819991-expens...And we ended up where we started: no consensus and no clarity.There have also been court decisions that support my interpretation, even though I personally find these court decisions debatable.

I personally use Hostfully and their support team is great!

They wouldn't be able to get a mortgage, but would have to do some kind of SBA loan or other commercial loan for the business with the properties as part of the business.

Surround yourself with knowledgeable professionals who can support your real estate endeavors.

To support my seller and seize a valuable opportunity, my business partner and I decided to purchase the property ourselves.

Let’s connect, and if there’s anything I can do to support you, just let me know!

Obviously very excited … But it looks suspicious to me - does this inquiry seem like some kind of scam or the beginning of a scam??

What kind of questions should I be asking and what kind of a return should I get? 

Apologies if I missed prior posts asking the same thingI want to take advantage of the low down payment requirement however need to find a lender supporting this loan type.Can you please provide any recommended lenders for Homestyle loans (or even 203k) that serve DFW? 

It kind of depends on the type of properties you're looking for funding on.
