@Andrew CarlsonSo here is a great chance to keep turning it around.

My parents investment LLC used 1031 exchange money to buy a house that I want to put in my personal name so I can file a PRE exemption. 

Maybe that's why, they want to keep it that way 😅 not sure 

Personally the only thing I find awkward about it is that you have to "invite" people to fill out the application or pre-application by their email or phone, I'd rather have a link to apply that I could post on my listings rather than have people message me then I have to collect the email, then send them the application, but that's just a minor inconvenience for me.

@Trent Parker I personally haven't had any issues with eastside funding and have used them quite a bit. 

Real estate investors are attracted to medium-term rentals to gain the benefits of extra cash flow versus long-term rentals while avoiding regulatory risks, high turnover, and intensive management of short-term rentals.While many investors are now turning to medium-term rentals to build their portfolios, the lending world has unfortunately been a little slow to keep up.

I agreed to keep the brother in place for 3 months and I believe it was this flexibility that won me the deal and kept other investors out of the deal.

I've found a niche in real estate investing where I purchase a single family home with a large lot and split the parcel into two and sell the lot and either keep the home as a rental or sell it as well.

Please keep in mind under section 469 you have "active income" and "passive income".

Never buy a property without seeing it personally AND having it thoroughly inspected by someone of your own choosing.
