I would only recommend moving on this if you are comfortable owning it for the long term.

I have an opportunity to make a quick 30k in equity, but only cash flow around $25 — if I look at long term appreciation, that seems to make sense to me, but am I overlooking something and trying to make this work?

Specifically, short-term rentals can help you get REPS status.

NO equity no bueno.. long term rentals NO good either. 

I was last getting terms around 5-6% for the first 5 years, then floating with prime, 20 year term. 

Realistically we will be getting closer to retail pricing although we are are looking at some off market properties to try to get a discount.In terms of cash flows, from the modeling I have done, there looks to a decent amount of cashflow on these properties when modeling at retail so I am curious why there would be no cash flow on BRRRR strategies?

Then once it's acquired and/or fixed up you could shop around for long term financing if planning on holding the property rather than flipping it.

Consult a tax professional to optimize deductions and explore strategies like Real Estate Professional Status or short-term rental loopholes to apply depreciation to non-passive income.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Does anyone have any experience with short term rentals in PCB?
