We chat through whatsapp and Discord and we meet regularly.

We are finishing up our own hosting and we are transferring away from Carrot.

I'm a local lender based out of Bucktown and work with a ton of investors, and help host meetups in our office.

I regularly attend meetups.

Im asking for recommendations and advice from midterm rental hosts in los angeles or in California.  

Hi Lindsey - I am also in SB and host the local meetup.

The host, Mike Jake, owned up to 150 SFH's in Colorado Springs at one point and grew his business from scratch by finding off-market opportunities and implementing several creative financing strategies. 

After the 12 months payments above you qualify for the exception so you're back to regular/normal LTV's which depends on your occupancy  - second home/primary/investment - it all varies. 

And this is separate from regular maintenance my property management companies took care of and deducted from the rental income.So the moral here is that RE is great but you can’t depend on cashflow.

I think overall the things you supply are on par with most co-hosting companies.
