I have a friend that owns over 60 rentals in his personal name and he's never been sued.

It's led to incredibly high occupancy rate in the off-season, but I'd rather have a slightly lower occupancy rate in order to reduce wear and tear and leave some weekends open for personal use.I'm at a loss on what to do about this.

As a person who has lived in NC & SC and Phoenix, I would highly suggest AZ.

I have purchased 3 STRs personally in the last 18 months and have closed on at least 25 for clients in the past 12 months.  

I want to make sure I’m as prepared as possible before diving in.Thanks in advance for any advice or personal experiences you can share!

@Adrian Lammersdorf-SciollWhy does everyone want to chase strangers – and ignore their own personal network?

Most DSCR lenders actually prefer you to own the property in an LLC, although some do allow you to close in a personal name.

I do not know how they are handling new customers verse the Midland existing customers.Regarding the customer service it seems the people I dealt with are still employed and only my "personal rep" as it were, was promoted and another took her place.

While an LLC can offer liability protection and tax benefits, it’s not essential for a single property—personal liability insurance and an umbrella policy may suffice for now.

Market timing, properly acquired property, personal capital available How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
