@NA NA, for me that is an easy answer.

I spearheaded the movement to get the devlopment FHA approved so that owner occupant buyers could use FHA financing. 

If you're wanting to use leverage to buy more properties, then once your credit is around 680+, one strategy would be to cashout refi your current property at around 50% LTV.

You can use form 3115 to catch up with any depreciation not previously calculated.If you have a condo, it is possible that there is no land allocation.Furthermore, if there were any assessments made by the Condo Association, you want to factor those in as well.

I highly suggest using IDI data.

There is a lender finder that you can use to get connected with a few.  

The properties are often flawed and no well-suited for a family to live there long term (lot's of bedrooms, but tiny living room, no yard, no garage etc), that's why they sold for a discount an get used as STR.

I would say ads are better than cold calling as its inbound vs outbound marketing and most people do not like to be called.

Guests are paying for an entire month up front, not an easy task.

An LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.
