Beware they tend to give BPO's which are closer to ARV's vs As-is values (as do majority of sellers) so don't leave much room for profit after taking into account holding costs, legal, taxes, etc.  

No idea what kind of single/shared room demand you would get near UTA.Here is a map for other people for Arlington's STR zone.https://www.arlingtontx.gov/common/pages/DisplayFile.aspx?

But my biggest loser, a single family in Commerce City, CO that I lost $180k on over 10 years.

This is for a Single family home we are using as Short term rental, so we dont want to go with big companies that charge $$$

I appreciate your insights and feedback:I have a single-family home I need to rent out long-term.

Your accountant may have some recommndations. 

In a resort style place like you are looking at, often more than one unit is owned by a single owner.

I’ve got a 2 family (2 singles on one lot) that we are interested in selling.

We are currently using Excel for the most part for tracking the rentals, and using a third party account servicing company for tracking most of the seller financed loans (Weststar). 

Excess business losses are capped for single individuals at $250,000 and for married individuals at $500,000, with any surplus being suspended and carried forward.
