Because I live abroad I was not able to find a lender willing to provide a loan.

Because they don’t advertise, difficult to find.Type 4 (Low Quality, Low Price)Not able to do any new construction or additions, rarely licensed, focused on low-end remodeling & maintenance work.Just one or two-person operation with no support staff.Very low overhead, markups seem low, but they often end up higher due to issues they didn’t price.Bids: Almost impossible to get a reliable written bid from them because they don’t have the knowledge to prepare proper pricing.

I recently fired a PM company because they were not able to stay on top of communicating with a tenant who I eventually got evicted.

Notably a house with an ADU is still considered single-family. 

No different than a swimming pool, finished basement, or giant pink sculpture of a dragon. 

@Julie Fullmer, The most notable one is "meetup.com."

You need a starting point to know what you would be looking at for capital gains taxes if you do not or are not able to 1031 exchange it.

I have the cash, but thus far am not able to qualify for conventional loans.

Here is what I uploaded, and this is my conversation:STR Property OptimizerBased on the screenshot provided of your Airbnb listing's pricing settings for September 2023, here are the descriptive statistics:The base price per night is set at $209.Custom weekend price is $240.The majority of the days are priced at $130, which is significantly lower than the base price.Prices increase in the second half of the month, peaking at $325 for the 27th.The weekly discount is 15%, with a weekly average of $1,296.The monthly discount is 21%, with a monthly average of $5,149.There is a notable booking from the 19th to the 26th totaling $1,775.10.Before proceeding, would you like to adjust any of these pricing settings or is there any other information you wish to update or add?

This gives a host of our investors the opportunity to offset gains from the sale of real estate wherein they were either not able to execute a 1031 successfully, or chose not to.
