I have heard though that most lenders don't mind this as long as it is not changing the ultimate owners on the property - such as a partnership where one person sells to the other.

On the RE side - I own/developed 2,000 residential units across the United States focusing on opportunistic residential acquisitions and development, including student housing conversions and luxury multifamily development.On the startup side - it is a third-party guarantor platform that expands your renter pool, increases rents and occupancy, and ultimately boosts your NOI while broadening affordable housing options for renters.

If you have a business entity(you want to properly track money going in / out from its owners).They will likely be classified as contributions / distributions.Best of luck!

I have a separate short term rental insurance policy (insurance agent recommended short term policy over long term since it's ultimately being used as a short term rental) Curious if that is the same as the Airbnb $1M liability insurance or if they have a separate one

I have most recently read in the last 2 weeks, Poor Dad Rich Dad and Bigger Pockets Invest In Real Estate the Ultimate Beginners Guide to Getting Started.

I would highly recommend finding a lender that does 10% of purchase price down because it will ultimately be less expensive for you.

Ultimately the pictures combined with the location are what sells it.You want to avoid HOAs at all costs.

2) Are large investment companies like BlackRock contributing to a potential decline in homeownership?

A few clients or properties can suck up all of our time and attention and ultimately, prevent us from taking on more business. 

You might be very pleasantly surprised.To conclude, it's great to have more new members like you from Europe contributing to the forum.
