Our family owned operation has been in business for over 10 years.

Hi all,I'm sure some have heard of the properties being built by Clifton Homes:Location: 9440 N Adrian AveThey are a fully vertically integrated operation (prop mgmt, construction, and financing).This is their deal:Cash in:  $50K6-8 months later:One time refinance to put a long term mortgage on it at or around 75% which gets your $50k back + 16%.

Some strategies to consider:Networking with wholesalers: Many off-market properties don’t make it to the MLS, so connecting with wholesalers who operate in OKC can be a great way to access these deals.

I am also an operator with 25 Airbnb listings (some that I own others that I manage). 

Operations and systems are my thing.

As an out of state operator, I like having the added protection of the waivers but using one or the other or both is really up to your comfort level.

I know a great MTR operator, Linda Allen, in your area.

If you’re running a MTR more like a STR, then you can decide to charge the full boat as agreed or, if you desire (possibly to obtain a good review) find a substitute renter for the period in question and credit the original renter.If, like me you operate a MTR more like a LTR just for a shorter period of time, you probably use a specific rental form provided by either the state real estate commission of the local NAR affiliate.

If not, even though you are a re pro, losses are passive & deductions are limited.There are 7 scenarios that will qualify as material, and you only need to meet one:*500 hours*Substantially all participation*> 100 hrs and at least 1/2*Significant participation*5/10 years*Personal service activity w participation in last 3 years*Continuous participationTo materially participate, you must be involved in the operations of the activity on a regular, continuous, and substantial basis.Once you pass the pro test, the material participation often comes along for the ride.You can elect to aggregate all rental real estate for purposes of measuring material participation under Sec. 1.469-9(g).Your time spent on all your rental properties (STRs don't qualify) counts as one activity, making it easier to materially participate.In order to make a strong case with your CPA and the IRS you need to document your hours.Best practice is an hours log where you are as specific as possible.
