If you close with a conventional loan, it will need to be in your personal name.

Hi @Frank Pyle,**I am not affiliated with any of the companies mentioned**To secure long-term financing for your Airbnb, look for DSCR lenders that accept pro forma income instead of requiring 12 months of rental history.

Or does one need a special license / need to open a company?   

The insurance policy must name [Landlord's Name or Property Management Company] as Additional Interest, ensuring the Landlord receives notice of any policy changes or cancellations.

I'm especially interested in hearing about how you've made a PMS geared more toward STRs work with MTR billing and leasing.I do remote operations support for an MTR/LTR company in Denver and am assisting with our tech stack build out. 

@Keith Mintz Will you be running the house or leasing to a company that does sober living.

My top recommendation is to begin by contacting property management companies in each target area.

Learn local landlord-tenant laws, FHA and VA loans, and property management software to streamline rent collection and maintenance.

Instead of one large loan of $50 million we hold in our portfolio 27 loans ranging in size from $750,000 to $5.9 million.  

Converting properties to multi-family is considered extensive rehab and those programs are a little more exclusive than the standard bridge loan programs.
