@Desiree Board For your mix of long-term rentals (LTRs), short-term rentals (STRs), and house flipping, an LLC is ideal for liability protection and pass-through taxation.

Ideally, this would be just one step in a larger plan to grow into multiple rental units over time.

I never like them to do it themselves because when we first started they did not match the color/finish correctly, and they get it on all the switches, baseboards, etc...The lease agreement has these provisions...Tenant agrees to use small nails and picture hangers when hanging pictures, mirrors, etc.

If a large investment company wins an auction, SB1079 typically gives you the chance to step in and match the bid within 40+ days.Check your local treasurer and tax collector’s websites—they usually list upcoming online and in-person foreclosure auctions.Hope this helps! 

Yes. build to rent in urban core adjacent neighborhoods. traditionally in our market in Columbus Ohio existing inventory was good 2014-2020. as prices rose, the cost to build started to match existing inventory prices because of supply shortage, especially for 2-4 multiunit dwellings. around that time we started to look at new construction and land. we found that land is a 12 month or more supply in our market which makes it a buyers market and you can design any structure you want in new construction. if you like a layout or floorplan all you have to do is design it. after that we looked at the right unit mix and Floorplans and layouts. we started looking at high rent per square foot layouts that were better than single family.

I aim to refinance within six months, ideally recapturing most of my HELOC funds in the process. 

Congrats on finishing Brandon's book—that's one of the best starting points out there.So, when it comes to seller financing, especially through family members who own properties free and clear, you’re actually in an ideal spot.

Ideally they'd be located in Houston / Texas but maybe that doesn't matter.  

They are otherwise ideal applicants. 

Ideally Bed Stuy would be the area closer to Clinton Hill and Crown Heights the area closer to Prospect Park so slightly higher rents than other parts of the neighborhood.
