Rental properties come in several flavors... short term, long term, etc.  

I like this idea because it reduces the potential vacancy I could have by doing a short 3- to 4-month lease that ends in April or May, then starting over with a year lease.

It is the interest rates at which banks lend to each other and is short for Secured Overnight Financing Rate. 

Projected sale: 950-990k Replacement property budget: 990k - 1.1M Plan: rent out the replacement home until meeting the requirements, then move into it while renting out a portion of the home via short-term rental 

On the other, the prospect of short-selling the homes didnt look so awesome either.

I would assume that if its for a short term loan, it would likely be better terms with the HELOC but I dont know much about the subject honestly. 

Upon logging into my Stessa account, I discovered that all my property rent rolls, and transaction history from the past two years had disappeared.
