I thought people would just refinance their loan if they got it at a high interest rate, reducing the risk of jumping into the market at a bad cycle.

Lastly, having a reserve fund is key to offsetting unexpected costs, especially with reduced cash flow from the loan repayments.Hope this helps, and congrats on tackling creative financing!

Good tenants can significantly reduce vacancy rates, turnover costs, and maintenance expenses.Many property managers I know are quick to fill vacancies, often asking, "Do they meet the minimum requirements?"

.- Plan: reduce corporate tax rate to 15%.

Diversifying into different markets, like Omaha or Austin, can help reduce any lender concerns and also spread your risk.Have you thought about the specfic market for your STR or MTR?

Quote from @Kevin Zmick:One of the advices I read above was to be a bit less discerning perhaps and get someone in the door for 6 months at a reduced rate, and then find my golden tenant in the summer.

This likely reflects reduced demand for T-Bills, heightened inflation expectations, and increased Treasury supply, all contributing to higher mortgage rates and a tougher environment for buyers.There’s likely more at play here, but I agree it’d be great to see mortgage rates head in the other direction sooner rather than later.

Reporting these expenses on your personal tax return (likely Schedule C for a sole proprietor) could result in a net loss that might offset other taxable income, reducing your overall tax liability.

Duplex appraised 380 (super ****ing low ball) brings in an estimated 3,900 a month in rents. buyer agreed and SIGNED addendum to purchase at 397,500. day of closing they dont show, tell us they didnt know what they agreed to pay over appraised value and are trying to get us to accept 386k. my agent had me lock in our month to month long term tenant to a year lease for THEIR lender and now they pull this.. they have only 5k in escrow account.. my agent wont reduce his commission from 3%-2% to help bridge the gap. suggestions?? 

This could help smooth out cash flow in the long run by locking in a lower rate and reducing future payment pressure. 2.
