The Airbnb account they presented as reference had low customer rating.

The way that item 2 specifies a specific LLC scenario makes me think that item 1 is referring to non-LLC corporations.

When you're looking for properties to renovate but not not local to check on progress of the project, it's important that you find or get connected with a general contractor that is credible and has references that you can see.

Reach out to Lane and ask for some references.

However, this is a difficult qualification to meet, especially if you have a full-time job outside of real estate.Don’t worry if you aren’t able to qualify for REPS status, because there is another strategy that is referred to as a “loophole”, which is the STR strategy.Per Section 1.469-1T(e)(3)(ii)(A): there are six exceptions where your rental property income is not automatically considered to be “rental activity” and thus may unlock the door for being able to offset these losses against your active income.The average customer use is seven days or less.The average customer use is 30 days or less and significant personal services were provided (for example, daily housekeeping).Extraordinary personal services are provided, regardless of the duration of customer use.The rental is incidental to a non-rental activity.The property is available during defined business hours for non-exclusive use by various customers.The property is used in an activity conducted by an S Corporation, partnership or joint venture in which the taxpayer holds an interest.If your property qualifies by meeting one of the exceptions above, the next step is to demonstrate material participation in the rental activity.

For AZ Landlord-Tenant issues, I refer to Zona Law Group (480) 949-1400. 

@Rashim Sharma your biggest challenge will actually be finding a lender.There are two banks that have offices in USA and Detroit that often will lend to Canadians buying in the USA.Can refer you to a Tax Attorney here is the US that has hundreds of Canadian clients with US properties:)

I agree, I would not base selection on price alone and I would definitely check references.
