I'm a new host who started hosting about two months ago, and I recently listed my property on both Airbnb and VRBO, approximately a month ago.

And I take the worst recession I can find in the recent past.

Your real estate professional will generally be the best source for a reliable closing and I think BP would probably be my next source for a quality lender. 

Pros: It's a seemingly very hands off process and I have met fabulous local property management.

Some people see it as a way to get into a multifamily house at a lower downpayment and interest rate, while still providing themselves a place to live.I think the only way it would be "wrong" is if it puts you in a situation you can't afford or makes you "house poor".My husband and I rent out 4 of the bedrooms in our house plus a bonus room, meaning we have 6 roommates, but our entire mortgage is covered.

He funded and I managed.

The furniture is ok and I have been able to be creative with a few things.

I am a finance guy but unfortunately my education is not adapted to the US real estate market and I am little bid confused.Goal:Buy a 2-3 family house to do a small rehab and rent afterward. 

This has been my first year having a rental and I have been managing it from another state since I moved back to Oregon, which has been difficult and a bit more costly since I am not local.

My fear now is that by posting it on Airbnb I put it out for the world and I believe technically it can’t be rented separately but zoning said they would just tell her I have a permit pulled or it was just people who are renting my other place on the same lot so basically really no way to prove it.I was thinking instead of a kitchen is just rent it out 3-4 months a year with an outdoor flattop grill on the patio a nice seating area and maybe an outdoor sink.
