Houfy now has a damage protection plan that costs the guests $5 a night and does light identity screening through SuperHog. 

The property will be strictly for investment purposes, not a primary residence.I’ve been looking into two potential financing options:Hard Money Lenders (HML) – I’m drawn to this option for its speed in closing, but I know the rates can be higher.DSCR Loans – This seems like a great option for long-term rentals, but I’m unsure if it’s the right fit for my auction property since it might need some rehabbing.I’m also considering purchasing through a land trust or an LLC to add a layer of protection and privacy.So, my questions are:What’s the best way to approach financing for auction properties?

My husband and I have personally flipped, built, and own rental properties, so we understand firsthand how critical it is to not only maintain good tenant relationships but also to protect and enhance the value of your asset.

Too many new syndicators think they can get away with skipping legal requirements—but the SEC isn’t playing around.If you’re raising capital, DO IT RIGHT:✅ Use a PPM & Subscription Agreement to protect yourself and your investors✅ Avoid general solicitation (unless using a verified 506(c) offering)✅ Understand accredited vs. non-accredited investor rules✅ File your Form D and comply with state laws🚨 Failing to follow these regulations could mean SEC fines, investor lawsuits, or worse.

Renter's Insurance is a cheap date for the tenant; it protects their security deposit and assets. 

I will preface this with the fact that I have a legal background, specifically with estate planning and asset protection.

We are t protected at renewal time. 

That complicates enough I'd consult with an entity/asset protection pro.I don't hold residential assets in LLCs unless partners got involved. 

Not a lot of protection.

In fact one of the themes of my posts is dissuading investors from over spending on entities and asset protection.
