From my understanding, most of those I know that are successful in this industry have partnerships or JVs in place.

I don't want to be in the hospitality industry. 

@Michael Plaks is spot on - character wise, 1099-R income falls in the same "bucket" as a W-2 wage would be, thus to offset this income with real estate losses, it follows the exact same pathway (ST rental with material participation or REP status with traditional rentals), but since you don't have all your time sucked up with a W-2 job, you have much greater flexibility to hit those related hours thresholds under those paths as well.No idea if he's taking clients - but if you are looking for local(ish) and qualified in TX, Michael is also likely a great one to reach out to.

Hope that helps and good luck as you begin venturing into the STR industry!

I figured out the only two money making industries that don’t care about felonies (I have four) is hospitality and construction.

Jacksonville is a great market with lots of professionals in the industry.

It doesn't take long to learn how to spot a good deal.6.
