Some landlords in my market are doing "self-guided" tours of apartments with lock boxes and a security camera or two.  

This checks the boxes for passive income, but since many of the properties are leveraged (up to 75%), does this trigger UBTI? 

I was out the $400 for the inspection - but that's money well spent to avoid a bad deal. 

They said they would only do the standard 50% up to 50k, even though I was directly effected by COVID (I coach boxing and muay thai, gyms were the first places shutdown here in WA).

If they get this done in a year with their ~$1B price tag, it comes out to around $2.7M spent per day.

@Reagan Huefner, Chase Sapphire Preferred is offering 80,000 bonus points (equivalent to $800 cash or $1,000 travel) on $4K spent in first 3 months right now.  

I know people that manage their own vacation rentals and claim to "net" $6,000 a month but don't account for the 40 hours they spent answering calls, booking reservations, greeting guests, handling maintenance, or whatever else is involved. 40 hours may be an exaggeration, but you get the point.

I would also like to benefit from the following deal as well.SO.....here is my idea....I am NOT a real estate investor but this situation has me thinking outside the box because moving during covid with 3 children doing distance learning is not ideal.Please tell me if my following solution to this situation is feasible, or if I am way off or missing something.1.

I spent 10 years pursuing a similar high cash flow strategy in Rochester NY - got up to 15 units - and in the final analysis I would have done infinitely better had I saved all of my ammo to buy a fixer out here in the Bay Area.  

I then spent 4 more years of paralysis and spouse conversion.
