We have >$2m in debt spread across the investment properties and our primary residence.

In Denver where I invest it's actually a PLUS to not have the other unit considered separate because permits are only allowed for STR if you're renting out your primary residence and I know many folks who put a locking door on part of their home and have a separate external entrance to that part of the house, and rent it out as an AirBNB without it being considered an additional unit by the city.

I am moving into a bigger home for me and my family and have decided to keep our current residence as a rental.

@Heather Jensen Are you looking to build a house for investment or your primary residence?

@Brent Kiger  Sorry, few more questions:- My residents using Buildium for years.

This means that you will probably need to pay registration and filing fees in at least 2 states if you don’t buy CA property as a CA resident.Be sure to tell your accountant that you may now need to file non-resident income tax returns in each state where you own property as well.

If my primary residence has $500k HELOC, could I use it to purchase a 2nd primary residence and rent out the first one?
