Sometimes condos have stipulations in their deed restrictions that go against doing short term leasing, so I would definitely get your agent or do the research yourself to ensure this isn’t the case at the building you’re looking at.

Coastal NC can be a great market, but it’s important to research local regulations on STRs since some areas have restrictions or require permits.

The village also had a lot of restrictions that made me not comfortable proceeding as a first time STR investor. 

Do you have access to the MLS for true ARV? 

I'm currently 23 and have access to around 40k liquid to buy a home when my lease is up in March of 2025.

I had access to my money for an amazing deal, and I was out of the IRA system.

I believe for an additional fee you could retain access to the replays forever but replays for 30 days were included in the $47 cost so I wouldn’t waste my money on forever.

Access Affordable PropertiesSome markets are more affordable than others.

There is some maintenance that needs to be done and i need access to the inside.

Starting without an LLC allows you to leverage more accessible financing options, with the flexibility to switch to an LLC structure when it becomes beneficial.
