@Desiree Board For your mix of long-term rentals (LTRs), short-term rentals (STRs), and house flipping, an LLC is ideal for liability protection and pass-through taxation.

In addition, they connected me to the preferred lenders who also helped with closing on the property within a short period time.

I have multiple lenders that can do 100% financing for the short-term rehab loan, up to 70% ARV for 1-4 unit properties.

got out of flipping to new construction in our market in columbus ohio. licensed general contractor. when interest rates got high single family existing went down by 30% new builds sold at a 6% increase that year which demonstrated the desire and premium that new construction commands. never looking back. total control, rinse and repeat. we can get permits in 28 days. we can buy land cash in 21 days. we can build in 120 days to 140 days and keep moving. super scalable and easy and no risk. we build the same 2-3 Floorplans 

Once you have a short list, get an account with each one and run them through the wringer to see how they really function.

I’ve been a real estate investor since 2015, owning and managing multiple multifamily properties and running a short-term rental business in Cape Cod, the Lakes Region of NH, and the Berkshires.

I’m an ex realtor who also has some experience working for a private equity group for a short time before I got a really good gig in a completely unrelated industry that will allow me to have options when investing.

@Kavya VeerapaneniThere is a market for short term rentals in Danbury.

The City of South Lake Tahoe does not allow short term rentals.

In all honesty if it's just one flip property I don't know if the $1,000 - $2,000 premium to have someone that markets themselves as a real estate CPA would yield you a good ROI in tax savings or some magical compliance maneuver.
