Some companies allow property owners to select tenants and set the screening criteria...We do not - our criteria does not bend. 

Does anyone have experience of setting up a STR while in the same position? 

If you have a road maintained by the HOA then set aside for that in reserves. 

I am genuinely curious to know what some of the goals are you have set for yourself this year?

Now, if you've already set up LLCs per property, then yes, have at least 1 checking account per LLC.For people who own their properties personally, keep personal accounts that are exclusive to RE activities so all of that activity stays separate from other personal transactions.

if you buy a random property on Zillow and turn it over to people you have never met, you will very likely lose money, get frustrated, and set yourself back.if you're serious i'd pick a market and plan on making several trips there. 

FYI I do have plenty of reserves for my other units already, but would like to keep each property separate.My question is, where should I draw funds from to pay the least amount in penalties, taxes, loan interest, etc. from the following sources I have available:- 20 year 401k loan for a property- Sell a piece of my stock portfolio at 15% capital gains tax- Take a HELOC against an existing property- Private money loan from a trusted partner I have worked with beforeAlternatively, I could pool the reserves for all my properties to ensure I can cover anything immediate and know that I could always sell off a piece of my stock portfolio if needed and have the funds within 3 business days or set up a HELOC and only draw from it if needed.Appreciate any thoughts or what you have done in the past.

Are you locked in on the contracts with the current set of tenants?

It’s only ~$5-$10 per property analysis, and you can adjust the amenities for the area to see how that affects the revenue estimate.

We would be happy to help you complete this step and set you up for success using the platform.
