I am a strong advocate for their effectiveness allowing you to do substantially more with your money. 

This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Primarily self limiting beliefs.One of my clients just closed on their first commercial deal and they only had one duplex before I started working with them. 

I had a client that had an illegal garage rented out for $1k per month and when he attempted to sell the property, the tenant went to the city and the owner had to pay the tenant back 2 years worth of rent.

@Ben Cochran I hope you have factored STR tax savings into your cashflow and ROI as it can be significant.Leveraging equity to purchase a short-term rental (STR) in Tampa Bay can diversify your portfolio and potentially generate strong cash flow, but it also increases your financial risk.While your properties hold significant equity, adding debt from HELOCs or a DSCR loan could strain your finances if STR performance fluctuates or costs rise.

If that's the case I would strongly suggest building your team before pulling the trigger on an Airbnb.

However, like any market, success depends on selecting the right neighborhoods and building a solid team on the ground.In Indianapolis, areas like Broad Ripple, Fountain Square, and Irvington have seen strong appreciation and rental demand, but they can be more competitive.

@Lolo DruffWhen investing in properties, I aim to balance high cash flow with appreciation potential in affordable, stable markets with strong rental demand.

Most reverse exchanges are done with cash from the client or a private loan of some sort from an individual or a portfolio bank.When your old property sells you will have that cash in your account to purchase the new property.
