Sometimes the more you grow the bigger the headaches become and this is where you also need to look at everything else you have going on (young, old, kids, no kids etc).

If something happened to me, I wanted my wife and kids cared for.

Credit for childcare expenses.The credit is allowed for kids 12 and under.

I completed the purchase of 2 quads with you within the last 6 months and my experience with Southern Impression and Suncoast has been the polar opposite...you have missed pro forma across the board.

I don't see insurance companies pulling out of the STR market across the board. 

People will rent homes in that area because they cannot yet afford to buy, but hope to buy a newer home in the future and keep the kids in the same school system and around their same friends.

While I don't believe that you need a full blown business plan, strict operational budget, timeline, scrum board, etc...

Assessors know who the pita's are, those same assessors have to sit on the board and answer every appeal.

I can't really house hack, as I have a wife and two kids.

Quote from @Paul Gupta: Hi, in California, For jobs requiring a license, there was CSLB (contractor state licensing board) which would give either a General Contractor license, or specialty licenses by trade (~60 specialties such as concrete, welding tile, ) https://www.cslb.ca.gov/about_us/library/licensing_classific...My Q: does Maryland and DC area have similar requirements?
