@Felicia Gossett continue to work on raising your credit and shop around for lenders.

If you're interested, I made a comparison chart of floating LVP products when I was shopping last year with a major focus on durability (also share some challenges with replacing carpet with LVP over wooden subfloor): https://www.biggerpockets.com/...There are lots of great LVP options out there though so I definitely don't think it's necessary to go down the rabbit hole like I did…

Obviously Avery's podcast, book, and blogs on the Short Term Shop website have lots of valuable information and I have followed on researching the various softwares/processes/tools for automating and managing remotely, but would love to get some additional perspective or experiences before I jump in.Thanks so much!

I don't see rates going up any time soon so wait and then shop around. 

I have countless stories of tire hoarding situations, and the most likely cause of stored tires is that the original person who stored them collected a “tipping fee” from some local tire shop and wasn’t permitted properly to correctly dispose of them.

I do not think the voters that voted for this are smart enough to realize that the this rent control will lead to no new multi family construction, minimal maintenance occurring leading to plighted areas, and a significant reduction if rental housing stock.If the voters are so ignorant that they ignore the experts/economists, then they get what they asked for even if what they asked for is not what they were expecting.If you have rentals in St Paul, I would be looking to sell. 

From piece meaning it to a one shop crew it ranged from $25k-102K.

I'm an active multi-family commercial real estate agent here in LA for the past 9 years and I have gotten into heated discussions with smart people regarding this topic.

Most people start shopping for a new bank deal with plenty of time to manage the transition (12 to 18 months out) and at that point, you should have plenty of equity that you'll have several finance options, or if you've maintained/upgraded be prepared to sell the property and take advantage of appreciation if finance options aren't available that meet your needs.

If so, do I charge the $38 (RentPrep smart move) PER applicant, that then goes toward their security deposit?
