Some high-end STR's (like in Joshua Tree) do use professional models, but for your market and property type, I’d suggest removing personal photos and focusing on the space itself, so guests can imagine themselves there, which is really what you want.You also have 81 photos, that’s too many.

Did you have to jump through so many hoops and provide this level of personal information?

IRS 590 also explains this.5) When you receive a distribution or otherwise get paid back, never take personal control of the money.

- Loss of historical data (for both IRS audits and for personal portfolio tracking.)You should be able to print the general ledger and Balance sheet / income statement for each period.

With a Conventional Loan you can buy a SFH, Duplex, Triplex or Quadplex with as little as 5% Down if it is your primary residence as long as you have the intention of occupying one of the units for 1 year after closing escrow.This is the strategy I have personally implemented and have assisted many of my investor clients in doing the same. 20% Down is also beneficial as it keeps your payment low but it does limit your ability of buying more real estate faster.i would be more than happy to discuss the different strategies with you over the phone or in person.

This is so I know if I should keep the person I currently have.

You are still personally guaranteeing the loan.And you did the right thing by putting the assets into an entity, especially if there is equity.

I personally do not have experience managing rentals.

Hi Ven, I personally consider properties that at least cash flow with full occupancy.
