Question is, how is he able to qualify for a mortgage if he makes no income?!? 

@Bo Goebel Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage 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.

Hi Biggerpockets community, I’ve been hooked to real estate investment lately and determined to buy the first property in the next 6 months.

Most of what they are asking is consistent with what I already do (I may have to change some of my timing) but boy, it makes me wonder what other hosts are doing out there that they have to make this a policy.Answering critical questionsYou must answer critical questions from guests in accordance with the timeline below:5+ days pre-stay: answer within 24 hours2 - 4 days pre-stay: answer within 12 hoursOn the guest’s check-in day and during their stay: answer within 1 hour (for messages received between 8 am and 9 pm in the property’s time zone).Access or Check-in instructionsYou must inform guests how to check in or access your property at least 72 hours before their scheduled check-in time.

I just got off the phone with a real estate developer.

I'm not sure exactly what your question is.

Traditional lenders in this industry won't fund you on a purchase of a SFH that has leases for rooms and the building will need to be in your LLC name which means a primary bank won't lend you either cause of that and cause of your employment status.You have a real chance to start.

Hi BiggerPockets Community,I'm a first-time real estate investor and currently exploring different markets to make my first multi-family property purchase.

If we resided in a property for 20 months in the last 5 years, does the IRS consider a "partial" capital gains tax exemption? Or is it a binary designation?
