Hi BP Community,I’m posting to seek your recommendations and insights on a few topics that I’m currently exploring:SDIRA CustodiansCPA specialized in REI and W2 IncomeInvestments beyond the first few single-family propertiesSyndicationsLegal Structures for REIWhile I have done some research online, I would greatly appreciate hearing from this community.

And for sure there is a BIG difference in a commercial broker who specializes in investment properties and the average agent that sells homes for retail purposes..

@John Underwood agreed, everyone refer to it as the “ STVR or STR tax code rule”.

Bigger Pockets has a special forum on creative financing  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/50  where asset-based financing is discussed.

We specialize in STR (100+ Airbnb listings).

I would also shop with a local mortgage broker as currently United Wholesale Mortgage is running a 125 bps special on Government refinances through the end of September meaning if you did go FHA streamline then you should be getting a rate of around 5% (borrower paid)4) If you havent asked, at 700K+ loan tell your lender you want to go Borrower Paid and you expect them to only charge a 1% origination charge fee.

If it shows on the deed history, Grantor is a bank and grantee is Housing and Urban Development on a special warranty deed, what does that mean? 

Specifically, we specialize in new build duplexes that offer strong cash flow and significant equity-building potential.

I'm not grossly opposed to SFH if it is much cheaper, but do to the spacing between dwellings per city code I could fit more doors on this plot if building duplex.

I realize it's not my right to tell people how to vote, but I'd like to put a clause in that reads, "Every time a levy, school tax increase, or special tax assessment passes, rent will increase by 5x the amount of that cost."
