This is not specific tax advice.  

Hi, Just bought a unit via LLC in Nashville area, specifically in Berry Hill to operate as STR.

Many of my investors who buy in Austin are specifically from the Bay Area.

I don't know anything specific about the Cincy market (and what the type of neighborhood this one is in - (A, B, C, etc.), but I've been told it's very similar to where I live in St.

However, terms are negotiated specific to each project. 

What specifically are you looking for in terms of investing? 

Hey Allen, When you approach the finance people, are you being specific in your request?

Also, which choice is better for you highly depends on what your real estate goals are and the experience level & skillset of the specific agent.Traditional agent and Redfin Agent could essentially be the same thing in many cases.

But before I even get into identifying specific properties, I need to first get smarter about some of the other things I put in my post. 

Without know more specifics, I'd suggest selling what you have now and investing in properties closer to where you live (and pursue 1031 exchanges).
