My perspective is forever changed. 

From a time value of money perspective, I can see this as being valuable, but overall it does seem to be closer to a wash.I am more interested in the LLC, so I can write off expenses.

Whether you're just getting your footing or already seasoned in real estate, I'd love to hear your journey—what sparked your passion, the lessons learned along the way, and how your perspective on investing has evolved.

Quote from @Bryant Brislin: Land in the path of development that may seem a little far out, but your gut/intution and common sense from an urban planning perspective tells you that some day, whether it's in 10 years, 20 years, etc it will be a great long-term position for your family to have and hopefully sell at a signifcant multiple return compared to what you've paid for it.

I'm in TN so I do not know that market at all, but from my perspective I would want to know what areas are in demand.

From purely a lending perspective, the projections from AirDNA and Rabbu are the only commonly accepted sources for underwriting a short term rental purchase or refinance DSCR loan.

To give you some perspective, I’ve interviewed or worked with over 50 lenders the past couple years and he’s only 1 of 2 total I recommend.  

@Andrew Freed, You don't have any issues from a tax perspective with bringing passive and active income under the same entity? 

Great perspective.

Thank you for this perspective Alecia.
