most of these "youtubers" etc social influencers are nothing more than paper tigers.

My point is, because some people got burned 10 years ago in the fiscal crisis doesn't mean one needs to be extremely conservative with leverage.

I'd also suggest speaking about Real Estate with friends, family, neighbors, and anyone else in your sphere of influence. 

Your nightly rate will be influenced by proximity to the beach, interior design and amenities (ex game options, fire pit, pool, etc).

I can't do that with my stocks or do anything myself to influence its value.

Aren't you glad that some antisocial media influencer brought this "tax strategy" to your attention?

While it is true that the time of year can influence market activity, as others have mentioned, there is usually a trade-off depending on the season.

This will heavily influence the best strategy for you.

Influence or control can lead to a beneficial owner even if you own little equity.Also it is 20 FT EEs AND $5M Revenue AND a physical office.

Narrow your focus, stop buying properties, and figure out what you actually know really well rather than letting FOMO, spreadsheet calculations on faulty pro formas, and advice of strangers on the internet influence your investment decisions.
