@Kim LeduffOn Tuesday May 14th we're hosting a meetup in LA which will feature a guest speaker, CPA Edward Markaryan, who will be going over Tax Strategies for Short Term Rental owners.

I am down the road in VA Beach and we are very active in your area.

HELOCS can be leveraged in consideration of a short-term project, but in my opinion you want to avoid leveraging one property to buy and hold another for several reasons.  

what I'm telling people about hilltop is the only reason it's going up is because of the average housing price in columbus being pushed and the lack of inventory. when I started I'd have bought here too. if I was going to invest here I'd look at houses built after 1947 without knob and tube wiring, etc. the old housing is the problem. we are building now in downtown adjacent. land is a buyer's market and it's much less competitive and easy to get the numbers to work. there is very little construction in 43204 and I've transitioned to new construction triplex now with entitlement and larger multifamily projects feel free to message or call anytime. personally, l like new construction in 43203, 43205, 43206, 43223, 43222 right now and obviously 43215 which you have to have at least 600k in cash to get the land to entitle and want to build at least 100 units to make it worth it. 

We are hoping to break even at this point with the plans for appreciation.

This sounds like the beginning of so many of the hundreds of foreclosure/short sale stories I've heard. 

Going to be listing a new property soon by Lake Winnisquam in NH and Im looking for some recommendations /referrals for photographers & cleaners that specialize in ABnb / vacation rental property listings.Ideally they would have a lot of experience with short term rentals for both since they are much different than residential house cleanings and regular real estate photography for MLS listing.Anything helps!

Renting out as a short term rental? 

Both Air Cover & VRBO provide medical liability up to $1M (and we are currently only listed with those two with no plans yet to host directly).

My husband and I are selling our house that we are currently still living in.
