Building reserves for emergencies and creating other contingency arrangements is also a good idea.When I retired I already knew that I had more than enough to retire because I had already been living more than 10 years exclusively on my rental cash flows and building reserves for retirement.

Someone suggested we ask them to be out by Oct 1 so that we get a new tenant before the holiday season. 

Because of the holiday I am waiting to hear back from an attorney as well as a title insurance company. 

Can anyone verify the tax treatment as of today that a gain from owner occupant unit is applicable for Sec 121 exclusion, and a gain from rental unit is applicable for 1031 exchange?

You can also list non exclusive with agents and then if you find a tenant yourself dont pay commision. 

Here’s where it gets wild: right before the holidays, we not only closed on the house but also helped her move into an extended stay hotel.

DSCR loans are not mutually exclusive to the BRRRR strategy.

Happy Holidays!

However, when it comes to peak season and holiday weekends keep a close eye on your comp set and go for premium pricing for far out dates.  

Understandable during the days of yore when all the data was exclusively held on the MLS and you needed agents to get access to reliable information.
