I always recommend to my clients keeping if possible because passive cash flow is never a bad thing and you can leverage equity down the road if you need a little extra.

If anyone has any advice on how I should try to get a solid mortgage or how to leverage my first time home buyer benefits, please reach out.

I can connect you with a great VA company......sending you a DM

@May WangEncourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Hello,We have a STR in Davenport, FL area and looking for some recommendations for Cost segregation study companies.

You can get a loan for $30mm, but you need to come with $10mm equity to buy the company.  

Besides getting a property management company around the area to manage that piece and your property, what are some of the alternative ways that you've done that have proven to be helpful?

Absolutely find a lawyer familiar with HM/PM and do not rely title companies or anyone else.

If you haven't purchased the course yet, definitely PM one of my friends has a company that offers the course at the best rates and with great instructors. 

Once you have that information you can submit a list to a skip tracing company.
