It’s easy to say “yeah my property is performing great!”

Would definitely recommend hiring at least 3 on an hourly rate and see who performs best.

However, it did not perform well overall and barely cash flowed (although, to be fair, it was on a 15 year note). 

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

The other one sits at home and aspires to be "an influencer" 🙄.

I wanted to get thoughts on if anyone has had experience performing a refinance prior to renting a property while utilizing BRRRR? 

He stated "My properties perform better than yours do because I'm not paying any mark-ups on my repairs."  

Your husband does not qualify for REPS anyway, but you do not need REPS to benefit from the so-called STR loophole.More importantly, STRs typically create large tax losses in the first year only.Most importantly, taxes are never a good reason to choose a poorly performing investment, IMHO.Read this post: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/1122635-the-s... 

It is not the possession of "proof" that is supposed to make me believe you are credible.Credibility is the (desired) RESULT of completing tasks, or how you act.Let me make it even more clear.NOT because you perform task A, B, and C, you are now magically credible.

And I think the Fed will push it this way and the only doubt I have is the influence of the election.
