I think there's going to be a serious thinning out of STRs because of the overall market and interest rates, and people just getting fed up with the platforms, unless one of the newer no/low fee platforms takes off.

IMO killeen is a solid investment. just have to watch which areas you are getting into. there are some pretty rough areas near fort hood but killeen is great because it is close enough to austin and people commute from there to austin as well. with fort cavazos near by and the new samsung plant coming online in taylor, it is a solid choice with steady demand for MF.

You should speak to your cpa but if multiple people are paying it then I believe it can be separated as long as it does not exceed the amounts paid and it must be legit

If that is the case then you may just need to be realistic about what it is worth - cash buyers are usually investors and there has to be enough upside for them to make money.Have you talked to your realtor about the feedback received from people that have seen the house?
