The city operates on a block-by-block basis, and understanding those nuances takes legwork—or working with someone who truly knows the area.

@Daniel Cacho I’m 35 years old, have been in the game for over a decade, own 26 doors, run a property management company with 350+ units, and operate a realty brokerage with a small team of agents.

One of the most important steps you can take as either a startup landlord or seasoned one is to use a platform specific to property management as it will elevate your operation and save you tons of time.The good news is that nearly every software designed for landlords includes these features.

I made that mistake with a 2 bedroom condo - after 1 year, I had to shut down operations due to HOA rule violations of NO short-term rentals less than 30 days.#8 The 30 day+ rule -  Certain places Airbnb is outlawed or a softer rule is the 30day+ rule.   

Why not take his name off the LLC and put it in your name now while the LLC has $0 of value (or whatever nominal amount your articles of organization or operating agreement say that you contributed)?

Regards, ClarkI'm curious, @Zhenyang Jin, with a DSCR at 1.30x, what are you total operating expenses relative to your EGI (Rent after vacancy expenes)? 

It specifically says it is not for real estate investment, but I believe you would be buying an operating business vs just real estate.This is so helpful Michael, thanks so much!  

The tax benefits refer to the tax deductions from mortgage interest and property tax.The returns mainly rely on appreciation, and the cash flow only improves in the last few years, also depending on securing the 5% refinance rate.I've learned a lot from this forum, but as I start to operate on my own, I'm still not completely confident.

These documents include your operating agreement/ corporate bylaws, articles of organization, certificate of standing, and the EIN letter. 

They are pure GARBGE. 3 months after they issued my premium I still get calls from their clowns to sign something and that insurance is not bound....I dont believe they are operating a insurance company, likely a scam artist to be honest  Sounds like this is an issue with their call center/in-house agency?
