Would be more than happy to see if I can find you something that works well as a STR.  

It definitely helps; but the IRS looks at other pieces as well including occupancy permits, extent of renovation, etc.

Add in state income tax savings of ( well a bunch) going to be a major change for us, however  I wont miss the Portland rain and Traffic. 

Would love a copy as well!

This is huge, and the thing I would say if there are delays after well preparation or lack of communication, there should be a line in the sand when to pull the plug on a contractor and get someone else in the project to finish the job! 

Therefore, I'd like to get it listed, so I can explore both options at the same time.As I start interviewing agents, any common pitfalls/things to consider when dealing with an agent when you still prefer to lease (ie would they expect to get the rental listing as well, etc.).

Wishing you all the best as well!

I am on my first BRRRR and the issue is lenders keep only wanting to lend on 80% of the purchase price and not the actual appraised value, which would keep my money tied up on the rehab portion as well as 20% of the purchase price.

If you’re looking for a good balance between appreciation and cash flow, there’s a lot of opportunity in suburbs to the west, including Adamsville, Forestdale, Pleasant Grove, and the like.If you’re open to nearby markets as well, Tuscaloosa could also be a fast-growing spot with strong student tenants worth looking into.

I’m willing to travel anywhere in the tri-state area, as well as PA and CT, to support your projects.
