I recently imposed this after COVID and I only shut one property down.

It’s relatively easy for an agent to find out the rental restrictions if there are any.If you are interested in investing you can always message me on here or text me 2012949968

How are the zoning restrictions?

Most jurisdictions in the DC area restrict short term rentals.

To the extent that this bill imposes new requirements on certain special districts, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

Recent amendments require a local agency to impose an owner occupancy requirement as a condition of a homeowner receiving a ministerial lot split.

Your budget can force you to seek in less hip areas or restrict your selections.The size of the apartments, the local rental market, and the particular area will all affect how much money you may make from a duplex.

Co-ops, on the other hand, involve owning shares in a corporation that owns the building and can come with more restrictions and limitations on how you can use or rent out your unit.If your goal is to dip your toes into real estate investing as a primary residence before building a portfolio of out-of-state rental properties, it may be a better idea to consider a condo over a co-op.

I own a unit at a high rise condo in Brickell with 30 day minimum as the rental restriction and at least a handful of times a year, someone is caught renting their unit on these platforms and gets shut down by the HOA. 

You can give those out to vendors and take them out sometime after use.One other old fashioned option is to have a lockbox somewhere on the property with keys to every unit, common area doors, any restricted basement areas etc.
