Quote from @Teekap Pate: DENY.An eviction within the last five years is an automatic denial, period.

In fact, during my short stint as an aspiring BRRRR investor, I successfully secured a pre-approval for a private money loan based on my net worth.Now that I’ve shifted to land investing, I’m wondering: Do private or hard money lenders exist specifically for land flips?

Short of that most small boutique brokerages are dying for help and likely don't have the time to look.

Towards the end of November, we got professional photos up of the reno and used the 20% new listing promo and quickly got 3 bookings for December in a two week period. 

We don't know if the new regime will be retroactive.In short, we don't know anything.

The time for them to negotiate the price was when they got the appraisal done-they didn't, so too bad.Two choices-take the $5K and relist with a new realtor or negotiate with them for the $24K they are short. 

Long-Term Rentals: What do you think is a better strategy for someone just starting out—focusing on Airbnb (short-term rentals) or traditional long-term rentals? 

I’m also aware there could be tax advantages to running a rental business, which could help offset the shortfall.I’ve had experience with short-term rentals in the past, but I found them to be a headache.

I intend to rent out my current home as a short-term rental.

Time is money.. longer the note period is to payoff the less your going to get for the note.
