I’m looking for insights on which states allow you to list a property on the MLS as soon as you have it under contract—but before actually owning it.I know that some states have strict regulations around wholesaling and marketing equitable interest, while others allow it as long as you disclose your intent.

That ensures you don't spend it on other things and know exactly how much you have to spend on the next purchase.

@Linda PhamAll our midterm rentals are in Colorado as are our clients, so I don't know Houston's market.

Let me know! 

It's good to know a lot about your tenants.

This also includes any potential benefits for tax losses, no matter where they are sourced to.Given the property is in MO, it would also be subject to income tax reporting in that state, unless there are any exceptions to having a filing requirement there (I don't know MO rules off the top of my head).  

P.S. also reach out to experienced real estate agents that cater to buy and hold investors and let them know of your intentions and availability.

I'd like to know because if they select them as they are entered into their database, right after filing, then there is another good reason to always extend and file on the last day.

I don't know anything about their policyholder experience.However, every homeowners policy I've ever seen, even with a "home sharing" endorsement or rider, requires some owner use of the property. 

Any guidance is appreciated and I know it's not tax nor financial advice, just your thoughts.
