I have chosen VRBO because it seems to work well here.

These types of loans I have seen done, and I've personally done a few in my chosen market.

A separate legal entity is the owner.Being a single-member LLC that has chosen to be taxed as a disregarded entity does not change the fact that the LLC owns the property, and Section 121 is only available to individuals who own and live in their primary residence.Of course, I could be wrong.  

We (frustratingly) deal with multiple agencies - as you do - and have chosen to not be certified (do business) with those that prove to be 'unappreciative' of the landlords' investment in providing quality housing to their clients. 

We have chosen to invest outside of the area although still in Washington.

Mesa has one of those zones it requested for a commercial corridor near Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport.CUT OUT OF ZONESSome of metro Phoenix's poorest areas qualified as zones but were not chosen, including Guadalupe, Maryvale, Sun City and Tolleson.Not every community made the cut because Arizona cities had to be home to at least 10,000 people to get a zone, according to the Commerce Authority.Tolleson, with a population of 7,052 along Interstate 10 in the southwest Valley, reached out to Maricopa County to see whether it could submit recommendations through the county but did not hear back, said Jason Earp, the city’s economic development director.However, Earp said Tolleson already is a huge employment center, with a large industrial sector, and the benefit of the opportunity zone program is still “up in the air.”Jeff Kulaga, town manager of Guadalupe, said he'd like to see his East Valley town of just more than 6,000 residents included if another round opens up.The southeast Valley town of Guadalupe has struggled to bounce back from the recession and has found it difficult to secure steady revenue streams to keep town services afloat.

@Kaitlyn AragonI'd start by setting aside time each day to analyze 5 deals in your chosen market.

I’ve have very positive experiences with the partners I’ve chosen to work with.

The advice I've been given, and chosen to follow, is to utilize HELOCs for short-term investments, with a plan to pay them off in less than a year and to avoid holding them long-term.Do you know what the value of your recent rental property purchase is?  

Are there other options you have chosen in this scenario?
