Hey folks,I'm officially taking my money out of the short term rental/Airbnb markets and 'dumping' it all into the toilet paper industry.With the massive shortages that are likely to take place in the coming months I see a great opportunity to capitalize on the increased demand.

Hey I just got approved for my Heloc and am ready to invest in my first official rental property.

I went ahead and paid 15 % federal tax and 4 % NC tax  will pay the rest later- wondering if that was a good idea.Have made cash offers on 3 SFH (planning on using our equity line) with no luck and I think the market is going to have to cool for me to find anything that will cash flow well (after I refinance).

Want and ability are two very different things, sort out which this is before you waste a ton of time on details and logistics.A tenant that wants to buy a $300k house for $150k is not worth your time ironing out all the details, once they show you a preapproval letter for what you are willing to sell for then you can figure out the rest.

That will put you a step above the rest

And again, this is generally more common in the rest of Allegheny County than in the unified Pittsburgh Public Schools district.Getting that reassessment will more or less automatically not happen in the first hearing.

When we viewed the house, they said they did the 3 rooms but too busy to finish the rest. 

If they don't have savings, in upcoming situations like this, they will get into trouble.You can tell them that because this won't be an official application, they can wipe off any kind of identification info like SS#s.

Kinda makes it official. 

But the rest of Texas still has great opportunity.
