My thought was to rent it as a mid term rental on Airbnb and vrbo etc because it’s in a desirable residential neighborhood walkable to schools and shopping. 

Certainly there are a lot more hoops to jump through disclosure wise and HR generally frowns on it fin some cases.Brokers at entrepreneurial shops (usually a local company that is privately owned or by a few partners) typically buy deals themselves a lot more.

I recommend @Yonah Weiss to all of my Short Term Shop clients.  

I also run a business out of the property so need to continue to live in the house in order to be allowed to run the business out of the shop in the property. 

Shop around.If you have more than one financial account titled to the LLC, you can move funds freely between them. 

Not a bad idea to shop around at a few spots.

Looking to shop my policy around.

Best thing you can do is find an insurance broker that will shop each renewal to ensure you have the best coverage for the best cash flow. 

I would reach out to the short-term shop and speak with one of their OBX agents.

The Short Term Shop has a local office that has very experienced agents in the OBX as well.
