typically (as you probably know) you buy something distressed, with either cash or hard money, you fix it up, and then you refinance into long term debt. 

The latter part of my post was referring to the protection of the account, not the assets through funding but the cash left on-hand.I think because banks are or were typically used for ck, savings, etc, I never looked to them as offering IRA/SDIRA.When I opened my account (2018) it was with specifics in mind and now I am reevaluating.

PM fees typically run 8-10% of monthly rent for a duplex plus often a leasing fee of 50-100% of one month's rent when placing new tenants.

Here in FL that is typically the pool and backyard area. 

The lender is the one who sets this up as they are the ones who typically pay since its them who is to provide this as well as keep track of the loan, but only be a borrower if they use a servicer.

Typically there is a small window for you to appeal (although this could vary county to county). 

One issue I see with this is that I do not have a real estate license so I don't think that would create any issues with STR management, but as for MTR management it seems like there are certain limitations without a license - any feedback on that would be appreciated-Staging properties primarily for FSBO's as I know properties listed by realtors will typically have an in-house staging offering.

- Design language (this has differentiated my home in Massachusetts though tastes differ and not all markets are as high earning as Mass)- Do you typically work with the same contractors, electricians, etc or have a network?

Thanks for your help For an owner-occupied duplex, you’ll typically need a hybrid policy.

Add this to smaller network and typically less knowledge for new RE investors.
