And you used the $500K exclusion three times and paid no taxes?

Which is used almost exclusively for new business start ups. 

To answer your question though, based on what you wrote, it sounds like you’re in violation of your lease.In California (as in most states), leases are generally written so that the property may be exclusively used/lived in by the people/residents named on the lease.

@Chris SeveneyI Have never met the guy personal, I did a Background check only things I see are 2 SAM Exclusions. 

I personally don't target places with a lot of business travel but there are plenty of successful investors who focus exclusively on medium term rentals (30-90 days) for corporate rentals and traveling medical professionals.I'd suggest the new Shenandoah National Park area in VirginiaManaging remotely will be similar across all markets, just make sure you choose one with favorable and stable STR regulations! 

I've gotten on a email list from a local realtor who specializes in REO but alot of what im seeing is HUD, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, of these the only value i have seen is with HUD but nothing thats gotten past the "Exclusive" period unless HUD would accept a deep discounted bid.thanks 

Various sources state that after 20 years passed from the final due date a title insurer can add an exclusion to the policy.

The location, directly across from the hospital, is what I liked the most, as I intended to rent it exclusively to traveling nurses.

The truth is, they should not be mutually exclusive...it's not a matter of this or that...they serve different functions and I personally suggest both.
