Better to keep rent 5-10% below market, but keep a tenant long-term.If you can handle all this, you MIGHT be ready to be a real estate mogul.Otherwise, you may want to get out of your own way and hire a PMC to manage your property better.Let us know how this goes before you continue dreaming about anything else:)

If you acquire one new property each year, you could significantly increase your wealth and potentially position yourself to qualify for larger investments, like apartment buildings or construction loans, within 10 years.I’ve worked with clients who have successfully implemented this strategy, and it has proven to be an effective path to building long-term financial freedom through real estate.Good luck with your decision!

At the same time, my market appreciates well so I gain significant value by holding on for the long-term.

@Rebecca GonaBigger Pockets is a great place to find a tax accountant that specializes in short-term rentals. 

People always long for the days of yesteryear and idolize the past. 

For me I think it depends on how much money you have invested into the home and for how long?  

From what I’ve heard in a piece by Forbes, focusing on unique features can lead to higher long-term rental satisfaction... especially if your tenants want a few animals or more outdoor space.

For me and my goals, I focus on long-term investing in residential single-family homes in Florida and Georgia.

My plan would be use the 401k kind of like a hard money loan where I'd acquire the property, rehab it, then refinance long term, pay off the 401k loan and get it rented.

@Dave Allenhello. this is going to sound reductive but if you want something immediately cash positive... i'd go with a savings account.rentals are long-term cash positive.
