Would love to join, if my offer is accepted I will suddenly have 2 STRs because I spent the last year converting and living in a 35 ft school bus that I plan to list as a unique STR, while I house hack the new property(The property I put an offer on has an established AirBnB). 

I have allocated $250,000 in savings specifically for investments, aiming for a conservative down payment of 3.5% to 5%, depending on the deal and financing terms.I am planning a visit to Florida in June to scout properties and gain a deeper understanding of Tampa's neighborhoods, including the greater tampa area.

I am looking for a CPA who has expertise in tax planning for H1B visa holders with real estate investments in rental properties and real estate syndications.

We are planning to add a hot tub once we get a few bookings.

(Long term plan)Always have a 3-6 month emergency fund.

I’m planning to update and repaint, maybe increase rent on one side to 3000-3100 while I live in another unit and replenish to legalize garage space.Monthly payment: $7033. landlord pays for water, everything else is separate.It just feels very tight in the beginning before getting ADU gets legalized. 

I would plan to sell this property when the tenant is no longer ready to renew.

If you plan to hire that out then it falls on the PM company.

My plan is to have a nest egg of money for each property in case things go wrong- long period of vacancy, roof/water heater/furnace replacement.

Right now I am busy with a transaction, but plan on moving forward in reviewing them in the future. good luck
