Do you think they're worth the investment, or do most buyers still prefer in-person showings? 

It's very personal and varies wildly. 

For Example:  All Blue houses make more money.Lots of times, I tell people not to trust me, since my topics can be vetted, plus I don't know their personal situations.Just surprised that people on the Forum don't have more Podcast visits referenced in their bylines. 

I personally think this is the direction booking sites need to go.

So I wonder if I can sell my home in Idaho, purchase the new one under my personal name, then how many months or years must pass before I can setup an LLC as the owner of my primary residence, or if you think that will be a good idea? 

Was that person me or another person as that sounds like something I have been telling people? 

I have some of the required funds in a HYSA, but will most likely need to draw from another account and I'm curious which method is the most efficient in terms of taxes/capital gains, penalties, loan repayments, etc.Based on my previous transactions in the market, I estimate ~$45k cash to close: $20k for the down payment, $15k for closing costs and prepaids, and $10k of starting reserves.

Personally, I would keep the property but I don't know your situation and if you could better use the money elsewhere.

It will still be reported on your personal tax return.
