If you want good cash flow but amazing appreciation potential and rentals you want to hold for the rest of your life, I would definitely consider Columbus!

Quote from @Tom Server: I’m looking for advice on the best way to access about $100k to pay off my 401k loan, credit card debt, and cover some rehab costs.Here the information-  I purchased 2 properties last year, 1 is a rental property that i had for about 8 months, the balance of the mortage is 170k, worth around 300k .

It sounds like you’ve got a solid foundation with your rental property, and I love the ambition behind your plans to build a property management and maintenance company—it’s a great way to take control of your investments while creating additional opportunities.Best of luck to you! 

Quote from @Brandon Bell: I've owned a property for four years with a standard fixed-rate mortgage, and now I'm looking to convert it into a rental.

@Phil Petite Forming an LLC in Tennessee is recommended if your rental properties are located there, as it simplifies legal compliance, avoids the need to register as a foreign LLC, and aligns the LLC with Tennessee's laws for property management and tenant disputes.

(Unless it was a rental, then you have to pay depreciation recapture as well, usually at 25%.) 

I’m a little concerned about off season rentals.

I wanted to see if anyone is familiar with or can recommend paid mentorship programs or coaches for small multifamily unit investing (2-4 units).In my research, I’ve found that most mentorship programs or resources I come across are geared toward large syndication apartment building purchases or other types of investments, such as short-term rentals, medium-term rentals, single-family homes, Section 8, or fix-and-flip projects.

Hello everyone,I’m a Canadian looking to buy a short term rental vacation home in the Kissimmee area.Currently we own a long term rental home in Winter Garden which we bought some time ago, and will be paid off completely in Feb 2029.  

Those sounds like great rentals and vacancy rates have been decent - our management team only has a handful of vacanies out of the 300+ we oversee, thankful for that.
