Like other posters have mentioned - it will likely vary by lender - but generally most states will be OK with either Individual or LLC but there are a handful of states that due to various regulatory interpretations will require a LLC (or require a LLC to have prepayment penalties on the loan structure) Borrower = Individual or Entity AL, AK, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, HI, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, NE, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WV, WI, WY Borrower = Entity only GA, FL, IA, MT, RI, VA (1-4 Units) Prepayment Allowed Vested Entities Only IL, NJ

Hello from Utah!

We who knew and liked John were at first shocked and then saddened that he had "gone over to the dark side". those pump and dump schemes are still alive and well originating out of Utah.. 

They are creating large build to rent communities in Utah, because they can, I’m ingested to see if this guidance affects only multi family properties or large corporations that own 50+ detached homes/units in a community.

There were a few slight distractions like figuring out financing, selling a neighboring lot (that I had also acquired via letter writing) on Craigslist, rent out my RV, rent out my house, make my first ever documentary film (a twenty minute short called Kara, Star Of The World about a woman with a traumatic brain injury from a childhood ski accident), take any photo and video work I could get, start a 360 photography company, create social media channels to hype the build, parent two small kids, do a beautiful and excruciating tandem mountain bike ride across Scotland, drive my family on RV trips to Colorado/Arizona/Utah/Nevada/California/Wisconsin/Minnesota/Michigan/Florida, attempt to write a novel and adopt a puppy.The above may read as humble brag, it is not.

I also see lots of newer construction in COVID booming areas that are sitting on the market - UT, ID, AZ.

In Utah, we are definitely seeing a buyer panic and some irrational purchases for fear of missing opportunities.  

It is incredibly hard to find a cash flowing deal these days in northern UT with home prices and interest rates being so high.

I live in Salt Lake City, Utah, and we have a STR ski condo in Park City.
