KwanzaHi Kwanza, I can help answer this question as I've worked with investors and helped them buy LTRs, MTRs, and STRs (own quite a few myself as well).

This is a solid spot to connect with folks.

I would love to chat with you this week if you are available.

This is literally asked monthly if not weekly.

Only in this house your mom happens to be the tenant.
