I fully support doing everything you can as a landlord to be in compliance of local zoning and ordinances, so I want to use your thread as a chance to let newer investors know a really important lesson: you can call the local municipality prior to owning a property. 

While the LTV and rate aren’t perfect, it supports your scaling goals.

All these providers balance speed with compliance, so it’s worth consulting with them to compare timelines, costs, and support for your specific needs.

It covers the investment process in detail and has a supportive community.

If you decide to self manage and want help with other functions we can totally help out.We also buy and sell real estate (candor realty), have a repair and maintenance company (CMR Construction) (includes snow plowing, lead abatement and full fledged rehabs) If you need any of those support services please let us know.

My properties are primarily in Arvada, CO, but I have a pulse on the market of regulatory environments throughout the state since I am almost entirely niched to STR investors in my business.

Ensure you have an emergency fund for vacancies or repairs and verify market trends to confirm the investment supports your long-term financial plan.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

YOu should ask him why that would be the case and for some type of supporting language to back up his claim.

I also support the point of thinking at least 10 years ahead and only buy properties your future self will be happy.
