An annual business tax as a hotel of $50 and collection and remittance of transient occupancy tax of 12% from renters is required of all short-term vacation rental operators.

There are thousands of websites out there that are disguised as helping the public find the best of the best but at the end of the day its simply taking your info and selling it to a 3rd party as a lead.If you are trying to buy a home or an investment property and you have good to excellent credit you should always use an FDIC Bank or Credit Union.

As a new fix and flip investor lenders will typically want to see 20% down payment and will be able to fund 20% of the rehab budget (80% LTC).

Let’s say you own 1/2 of the $700k property as a TIC and can do a 1031 easily.
