We are solely working on assisted living:- Buying homes and leasing them at higher than market rates to these business operators- Purchasing existing businesses with the real estate- Developing / building newFor us, the business makes the real estate cash flow, we can create a massive impact, and the demand outpaces supply and will continue to be that way for the next couple decades.

Since you currently operate without an LLC and report rental income on Schedule E, the vehicle purchase might not seamlessly integrate into your existing tax structure.To leverage Section 179 deductions effectively, you may need to consider restructuring your rental property management operations.

You can do this with a simple, one-page addendum, or even a written statement added to the existing lease and signed by you and the tenant.Example:This lease agreement is hereby amended to reflect the change in ownership of the rental property located at 123 Straight Street, Cody, WY 82414.

I’ve had several investor clients go with a new (to me)/ unproven lender because of a slightly lower rate promise only to get burned by that lender (closing costs were higher, appraisal costs much higher and appraisal was a nightmare, main point of contact gave us the clear to close as we passed our financing contingency then just before closing someone from the underwriting department we previously didn’t know existed said we need a few more days and seller didn’t agree because they had a higher backup offer, jeopardizing the earnest money and losing the property, etc).

(I would not specify how much.)If the property needs a ton of repairs, then even buying it subject to the existing mortgage may not be enough to make this a viable deal.You need more info, and fast!

It varies, but when retainage exists that will drive up the cash to continue to advance the project because borrower won't be receiving draw releases equal to their outlay. 

I look at it as saving the rest of the existing members and myself headache. 

OTA business doesn't exist without the hosts and screwing hosts will be the last thing they would do.

My vision includes developing the land into a destination with features like driveways, walking paths, utilities, and unique lodging structures.Here’s my tentative plan1.Place the existing STR in an LLC2.Apply for an SBA small business loan to fund the next steps, including a feasibility study (~$10k+), land clearing, and infrastructure development.While this direction excites me, I’m torn between pursuing this venture and continuing with a more traditional approach—buying one home per year using conventional loans.I’d love to hear your thoughts:•Has anyone transitioned from STRs to glamping or similar ventures?

The standing plan is to put in mini splits in each unit once the existing furnace finally dies.
