Other:  -Custom closets are always well received.

Well, STR can work well for people who own a vacation house for personal use, and just want to generate some extra income when not in use.  

We have sold (tax free), kept as long term and/or short term rentals as well.

Well you can probably get around $70k out of your $300k property on a HELOC.

That works well here.

Thanks- Robert very challenging to wholesale commercial properties as there are a lot less than residential and most are more complex and sellers typically go through brokers and the buyers are more institutional as well.

I am curious to learn from others as well  :)

We host RE meet-ups as well.

Well, the latest "clarification" of the vague memo is that "rental assistance programs" are exempt from the pause - so I am expecting payments to arrive as usual.

As explained above, income from the financed portion of the property in an IRA would be taxed as well, but you can deduct related expenses, including depreciation, to minimize this tax liability; that is why I recommend a discussion with a tax expert to understand what your numbers would look like.Hope this helps!
