Is there any distinction between a portfolio loan and a commercial loan?

Distinctiveness and consistency are key.Once you've named your property and decided upon a brand personality, you'll want to focus on creating a website and marketing materials that deliver an experience -- just as your vacation home should do.

I keep separate and distinct records for each designated series using QuickBooks Online.

Definitely agree, I would add a level of distinction though. housing can rise, but the total COL for TX is still lower than CA.

It has a very distinct sound.

If these are legal separate dwellings, with their own addresses. then the city should also be able to install two distinct water meters with two separate accounts.You can try to guess who used how much, but you will never be correct, and one of the tenants will always complain. 

Similarly, if the government wanted its agents to inspect rental units in between tenants while they are vacant (or the hypothetical weekend rental car when it's in the lot and not being rented by a consumer), I don't think anyone objecting would have a leg to stand on.I'm mostly thinking out loud here, my position/opinion being developed on the fly as I think about this and we go back and forth...EDIT: if any lawyers want to chime in on from whence the apparent different standards for business and personal stuff arises (assuming that distinction exists at all and I'm not hallucinating), I'd be most happy to read up on that. 

Here are some ideas and observations:Market Dynamics: Manhattan's distinct market dynamics and high property values are well-known.

They'd much rather say, "I sold my home" a mindset that maintains their dignity--a subtle to nearly worthless distinction from a FICO/future qualifying POV but meaningful to some homeowners.I intended to post URLs to support what I said in my initial post but, apparently, as a new poster, I cannot post URLs until a couple of days has passed.

Gatineau has much lower prices but when we visited the area I realized that despite its close proximity there's a distinct quality difference from properties in Ottawa.
