It costs about $3-5 per month per door… one of our favorite landlord tools by far.  

You can start by reporting it on your Schedule E but you will be subject to taxes.

Kinda nice because now you get to be the bank and collect payment on your terms, instead of the OTAs using the guest's for their own liquidity need until they pay you out. 

Nashville should certainly be there - regs (but well regulated, predictable) and is the favorite trip for pretty much all SEC Schools (best city by far in SEC, drivable distance, Vanderbilt sells out typically >2/3 of the stadium to opposing fans, etc.)

I am debating liquidating a portion of my brokerage to pay down these properties to reduce risk.- Would you refi now or wait until rates drop? 

Sounds like the rate you got by buying down a point would also be in line with what we offer as long as credit and the appropriate amount of liquidity are there. 

Did you get copies of their schedule E tax returns on this property to confirm their gross and net income?

If you want to take a vacation, be out sick for an extended period, or even just move on, you'll need to "hire" and train a replacement.In terms of "The Cashflow Quadrant" (E - S - B - I), you're in the bottom-left corner: you're self-employed.You would need to move to the top-right corner and become a business owner: the business needs to run even when you're out sick, on vacation, "on family leave", etc.If you're new to the concept, "The Cashflow Quadrant" looks like this:E | B-----S | I"E" is you're an employee in someone else's business. 

My favorite parts were learning the ins and outs of the contracts, which I was always very curious about, and photographing/editing all of my listings pictures.

They ha e a program where they send you leads of vacant homes and send you leads for cash buyers that allows you to get into wholesaling quickly.
