QUESTION #4 Would it be a smart decision for the tax purposes of losing our personal home deductions in our taxes compared to the benefit of depreciation and others tax benefits with the LLC.

I'm looking into a property right on the Oconto River, 30 minutes north of Green Bay (I'd assume Packers games would bring in some STR activity as well).There are a handful of STR's in this small town, and the state regulations seem to favor STR's to promote tourism and travel.

(Coming from the seller's agent they will promote the seller's position=Duh!)

I've kept a checking account that I have only rent payments & expenses going into / coming out of.I don't have an entity like an LLC or anything yet, so it's just a personal checking account that I'm using for this purpose

I just started interviewing brokers: Keller Williams, Lyons and Caldwell  Banker, and really am leaning toward KW for training purposes. 

For tracking purposes, I'm not really sure how to do a payoff because it appears that it's a loss with the way I am currently doing tracking, which is very, very, very simple. 

@Rachid Zidani - I think that any of those 3 cities would be a great option, I'm not sure that you necessarily need to relocate for the purposes of a house hack.

My purpose of this post is to find a strong, reliable Real Estate Agent in my area looking to grow their own business, and who'd be willing to help partner with me on future deals and provide access into their MLS portal so that I can focus on acquisitions (finding off/on-market properties) to then shop to the end buyers/investors on my list.

Some states are very clear that the buyer can have access for specific essential inspection purposes (measuring for furniture not being essential) and others are wide open and allow the buyer access for anything with proper notice to the seller.
