If there are any local members I would love to talk and hopefully gain some knowledge.

They provide better benefits and better perks.

I understand that the person(s) listed above may use this document as a basis for gaining a release from the lease.I attest that the foregoing is true and correct.

Even the best tenants will break things.Food for thought...If you are going to rent it out, your rehab numbers would be lower since you wouldn't be putting in the best finishes (for the same reasons as above).Doing a flip will kill you on taxes and eat into your profits due to the short term gains.

Live in is a good strategy especially if you will live there for 2 years or longer (section 121 of the Tax code) you will not pay tax on gains up to $250K single or $500K married, keeping that in mind markets change, so consider where we are and where you think you will be 2 years from now. also consider if you are there less than 2 years the gains are taxable at a very high rate about 1/3 or more of net profit for most people.

Networking groups are also a great way to gain exposure.Break through the “Rookie Wall”This sports metaphor refers to first-year players who suddenly stop having the kind of success they did before they made it to the professional level.

I was wondering what the benefits are for applying for my broker's license?  

Plus - its a benefit that you are from the area and know it better than Texas.You mentioned wanted to do buy and hold or fix and flip.

Furnish it like you would with a STR, but find gainfully employed tenants such as travelling nurses, project managers, visiting professors and such. 

one basic reason is because if you ever needed to get that property back in your name or move it into a trust, etc, the transaction of removing it from the s Corp would be considered a sale and the s Corp would be liable for taxes from the gain, even though you’re moving it from an entity you own to yourself.
