I know the question is mainly focused on what sorts of special protections you will need as a landlord with a lease as opposed to a longer-term AirBnB booking, so let me answer that first. 

I have been offering weekly discount but thought of doing a special with a minimum stay for those dates.  

I have two roommates in one of the units, both of whom are in the military.

If you're looking for FL attorneys that specialize in private money lending, I spoke with two this week - Jennie Farshchian at Farshchian Law and Michele Diglio-Benkiran at Legal Counsel PA.

The reason for my question is that I saw Grocapitus list preferred opportunityLinked below:14-16% Short-Term Pref Equity Opportunity (grocapitus.com)From the terms it seems like the only thing special being offered to is 1st access to cashflow and exit funds.

I’ve had some good insight from this forum with mixed responses which help reinforce that neither is a specially bad option. 

For bigger deals, it’s always a good idea to set up a new entity, like a special purpose vehicle (SPV).

We all signed leases individually and the landlords never had special zoning or permits.

That is what we specialize in. 

For most people it means October 15th.For my clients the deadline is February 3rd, because my firm is in Houston and has a special hurricane-related extension.
