Further, my understanding is that it is possible to create a multi member LLC with yourself and a corporation as members, where you're the corporate official(s) - but we're getting fairly deep into the weeds here.Note that I'm just a lowly landlord who has attended seminars and implemented some of what was taught.

Implementing risk mitigation measures like fire-resistant materials, updated electrical systems, and security systems can help negotiate better rates.

My suggestion is that, if you are willing to move around the area then maybe you should consider the strategy that my wife and I are currently implementing. 

Many options out there for tenant screening trying to implement AI solutions.They can work on MOST Class A and many Class B prospects, but there's a huge dropoff in success for Class C and D prospects.

Those skills are acquired through people imparting knowledge that can be implemented into practice.

The good news, it's never too late to learn, implement, fail, fail some more, evolve, and grow into the person you were called to be.

My savings are falling short after my home purchase so I need alternatives that can be implemented right away (ie I don’t want to wait 5+ years to have sufficient savings to only then invest in rental).Any feedback is welcomed. thanks 

Thanks for the tips Eric, super insightful and will definitely implement.

San Diego recently implemented an STR quota and one of our STRs was not selected in the lottery. 

Scenario 2 - 9.5% Yield (Multiple notes) vs Stock at 6%:For this scenario we are going to use the same numbers as above the only difference we are going to be buying a new note with all of the money we get after ever year.Year 0 - 12k to buy the note Year 1 - We have 3024.24 (252.02 * 12) Year 1 - We buy a second note 3024.24 at 9.5% for 4 years -- 48 payments of $75.98.Year 2 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 (75.98 * 12 -- 2nd note)Year 2 - We buy a third note 3936 at 9.5% for 3 years -- 36 payments of $126.08.Year 3 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (126.08 * 12 -- 3rd note)Year 3 - We buy a fourth note 5,448.96 at 9.5% for 2 years -- 24 payments of $250.19.Year 4 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (3rd note) + 3002.28 (250.19 * 12 -- 4th note)Year 4 - We buy a fifth note and final 8,451,24 at 9.5% for 1 year -- 12 payments of $741.03.Year 5 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (3rd note) + 3002.28 (4th note) + 8,892.36 (741.03 * 12 -- 5th note).Total: $17,343.6 While this second scenario does outperform the 6% stock market return, it only give you a 7.64% annualized return while is better, if we implement scenario 2 in a self directed IRA where lets assume they charge you $150 every time you buy a new asset that would technically be $750 less of profit giving you a profit of $16,593.6 and a 6.7% annualized return.
