We want to explore investing in different type of property or doing airbnb.

I went with a different lender and closed the next day.

Would this still be recommended if I planned on investing in different markets? 

Bonus depreciation done via cost seg is recaptured differently.

We want to buy an arcade machine for our STR that plays a bunch of different games.

You can cover the wire mesh with drywall patches (they tape on wall and across the wire, white/paintable, different sizes) as the wire mesh is what will prevent the rats from eating their way into the property (the covering material is cosmetic only).

Kind of a pain and also both less transparent and less efficient than before, but not drastically different. 

This was a DIFFERENT bank from the one my mortgage is in, I'm hopeful that works, but I'm not sure. 

So far it has helped me and I have done this on two deals in different states with different banks.

So far, I've rated Evergreen and FCI lowest based on a number of reviews on different platforms that have consistent negative reviews mentioning certain specific issues that I find concerning (this is after accounting for the inevitable disgruntled customer/borrower who gets unjustifiably upset).Are you able to share any of your information?
