Hi @Kyle McCorkelLooking at Palmyra currently, and actually just submitted an offer on a possible STR.

How to Track Regulatory ChangesStaying up-to-date might seem daunting, but the right strategies and resources make it manageable.Key Resources:Local Government Websites: These often publish updates to zoning, rental, and housing codes.Real Estate Associations: Organizations like the National Association of Realtors (NAR) or local landlord associations offer regular updates and seminars.Newsletters and Blogs: Subscribe to reputable legal or real estate blogs for insights into upcoming changes.Professional Advisors: Build relationships with real estate attorneys and property management professionals who can provide guidance tailored to your market.Pro Tip: Set up Google Alerts for terms like “rental law changes” or “landlord regulations” in your area to receive real-time updates.3.

Be sure you to have offer for potential homesellers to raise their hand... like a Home Seller's Guide.Call expired and ask them how come they think their house didn't sell and listen to what they say. 

If you really want to get rid of them, sweeten the pot by offering to return their deposit after you verify the unit is empty with no damages. 

Like you said, identifying what areas in your property are unique and can be designed to offer your ideal guest value.

Example Scenario:- I sell a property for $700K, walking away with $150K.- I invest that $150K as an LP in a syndication deal.- The syndication sells later for $5M, and my share grows to $200K.- I want to 1031 exchange again.Question:Does my next deal have to be larger than $5M (the overall deal size) or just larger than my share of the equity in that deal - meaning, if 200k was 20% ownership then it has to be more than $1M (20% of sales price)?

Here's the details:ARV- $210- $220KRent: about $1,900/month3 beds/ 2 bathsNeeds: New roof, New HVAC, New fence, Minot touch ups inside like paint and cabinet touch ups.Rehab- About $40kI offered $140K and he countered with $190K.

The only real advantage to using an FHA loan is to offer only 3.5% down payment, which in my opinion is barely justified as an advantage. 

I have had previous requests for help with this situation, and that's the advice I consistently offer.

One long-shot option is to offer a lease at something like $1,300.
