My favorite ones (as a Contractor) are those like : "How much will it cost to re-wire my entire house?"....."...

I have an LLC which holds a 505k mortgage on a house in the Hudson Valley that I currently rent out on Airbnb.

They live in a semi HCOL area called Torrance (house is in a good zip code 90503).

Even if you rent the house for $2,000 a month, you will still lose because of maintenance, vacancies, and the expensive mistakes common with newer investors.You can borrow up to 70% of the equity.

They even sent someone from the city to the house to tell us to stop operating it as a STR. 

Wish they would build houses with this style of architecture still.

Hi Meghan,   My wife and I live in Coon Rapids, but have 2 rental houses in Duluth that we rent to college students.

A few years ago there were a lot of get rich quick types, and I still get contacted by people who think they can buy 2 houses and retire on the cashflow. 

One thing I continue to think about is how valuable 2-4 unit properties are becoming, and will continue to be, since Fannie/Freddie took the income restrictions from the 5% down conventional loan option for house hackers. 

If it does go to probate, hopefully your brothers and you can amicably go the informal route vs formal (I've worked with families in both when buying properties out of probate and informal is FAR easier).Since there's no debt on the house, maybe you could sell with financing or maybe you could even buy out your brothers with financing -- that way you maintain ownership and just pay them a monthly amount.
