I am growing slowly and the larger platforms were creating unneeded complexity and cost for my business needs.  

We don't sell you the home as they do, rather build it out at cost +fee for you, allowing investors to enjoy the upside in price.

If rates DO come down in the future you can consider refinancing, but don't forget there are costs associated with that as well.

Double digit loans of $250-500k can be both cost and qualifying prohibitive.

When you gut a space, costs spiral exponentially because you need to bring everything up to current code!

We work hard cut costs as much as possible, everywhere that we can. 

It’s my understanding it’s very hard to meet reps status working a w2Also I believe once you get above $150k basically you lose any benefits of reps status I think I will be able to qualify for the STR re status if I run the cost segregation when I purchase the house. 

Including utilities in the monthly rent is more likely to cost you and create problems.

We had someone get a ticket and pulled the carts for the rentals, probably cost us between 5-10% of total revenue but it was more important for us to keep our carts than not have them for an extended period.$2 mm house or not you will have headaches with carts regardless and in our experience it's just not worth the hassle.my recommendation is work a deal with a local place you can refer them to and get a small referral fee from.

I recently contacted them and they spent a lot of time trying to sell me on their mentoring program that costs an arm and leg.
