@ryan Alacon for me it is about diversification with in the business. 

I've spent the last year or so researching different techniques of real estate investing and I believe I've settled in on the best strategy for me!

I downloaded some assignment contracts from online, but not sure if they are legal here in San Diego.

short-term and vacation destinations are in general is most profitable but is most vulnerable at times like now.many places have 30 day minimum restrictions and that trend will continueSo yes corporate rentals are by far the best combo but you may need to do your own marketing/networking to get corporate clients.since i do this as a side gig, I needed to be more passive so I let Airbnb and VRBO do all the marketing for me.  

For me I go to net work and meet folks.

This is sadly not looking good for me, but it is what it is.  

However, when you apply for a new mortgage the lender will have you fill out a Schedule of Real Estate Owned form that basically asks about any properties you already own along with any lien holders on those properties, balances owed, monthly payment amounts, etc (see below for what one of these forms looks like).  

Alex - Can you make something clear for me.

This is the perfect time for me to build the foundation for future wealth while having limited responsibilities.Can you guys help me with any and all realistic ideas?

Lucky for me one of the dramatic tenants decided to leave and the house became calm again.
