However, I’d like to have a space of my own before living with others again (I plan to house hack again with my next property).I’m seeking advice on how to move forward, as I need to consider things like utilities, taxes, landlord/umbrella insurance, and managing the property, especially with someone renting my garage.Specifically, I’m curious about renting out individual rooms and living on my own for a little while.

A mid-term rental could be an great option during the 6-7 months you're away since it appeals to traveling professionals, remote workers, or individuals relocating and offers stable income without the constant turnover of short-term rentals.

My clients are mainly real estate developers, PE funds and individual investors doing syndications and my core skill is in real estate valuation / due diligence across real estate asset classes. 

Whenever I face challenges, I tap into my inner Goggins, reminding myself that if he can conquer the impossible, so can I.And let's not forget Think and Grow Rich, a timeless classic.

There's obviously quite a bit of diligence that comes after such as who the key principles are and their credentials/track record (both balance sheet and experience), the underlying real estate and thesis behind the investment & tax prep and audit procedures but as a general rule of thumb if the investor can't get past the first part which is understanding what they are investing in, passive investing is probably not for that individual. 

Quote from @Joshua Tucker: What specific tax benefits can high net worth individuals receive from building real estate on tribal land?

I came across some critical information today that I think is important to share with you:In the aftermath of the LA fires, it has become evident that some homeowners’ insurance claims have been denied or disputed because the property title was held in a trust, but the insurance policy was under the individual homeowner’s name.This serves as a valuable reminder to review your insurance policies and ensure that the ownership structure on your property title matches the named insured on their policy.

Financing for RenovationsSince the property needs a full gut job, consider:Hard Money or Bridge Loan: Short-term funding to acquire and renovate, then refinance with a long-term loan.Private Money Lenders: Individual investors willing to finance the deal for a fixed return.FHA 203(k) or Conventional Renovation Loans: If you qualify, these loans roll rehab costs into the mortgage.3.

As far as Lance Kawaoka's claim that the reason there wasn't much response to a post about checking on the quality of a large, well-known, super-markety sponsor is that members wouldn't want to declare that they are a high net worth individual just doesn't hold water.

.- Phase 2 (April 1, 2022)Applied to all remaining existing policies, transitioning them to the Risk Rating 2.0 methodology upon renewal.The new system replaced the decades-old approach to calculating flood insurance premiums, aiming to provide fairer and more accurate rates based on individual property risk.Before Risk Rating 2.0, flood insurance premiums were mainly based on whether a property was inside or outside a designated flood zone and its elevation on a map.
