You can find rental restrictions on the Pinellas County Board of Realtors site... https://pinellasrealtor.org/short-term-rentals/...It also has Hillsborough and Pasco County.

Hi, Note sure if you are still around on this site...

Mine charges a flat fee for both placements and renewal which I think is better than charging 1 month's rent.  

Like a trust.LLCs do not open some magical door to more tax deductions.I tend to recommend LLCs where the properties are located, but then those LLCs are owned by a Wyoming multi-member LLC.But if you think that you can skip fixing that loose railing and hide behind an LLC when the tenant is injured, you'll regret it.

(I'm thinking for general banking, checking, savings, etc.)I've been banking with Chase, and am having a nightmare of a time closing CDs upon maturity.

There is a plethora of sites on the matter for STRs.

At the end of the day, if a lender thinks a wave of foreclosures is on the horizon that will decimate real estate values for a period of time, they will not lend.  

For VA loans, I think I can speak for almost all of us in stating no veteran is likely going to let you assume the loan unless you also are a veteran and can use your VA loan entitlement.

ARV comps are easier to find on free sites than distressed comps since renovated homes usually go on all 3rd party websites (zillow included).

All you have to do is make a compelling point for them, and having a broken property that they don't want to fix can be a reasonable one.Anyway, allow me to give you a couple of points to think about.Downtown LA has been suffering because of the working-from-home shift and the effects of the homeless.
