However, as a landlord here, we are able to request all documentation for the animal in question.

(Airdna.co) They have 3 years of monthly history showing number of listings, revenue trends, occupancy trends, etc. 

Then, just have your broker review every document that is produced and give you advice at every step of the transaction, and pay your broker yourself.

That was back when you needed two years of rental history to count rental income to help qualify for the next house.

In Oregon, even though you are licensed and can conduct your own sales since your license is hung with a managing broker (Oregon term) they have to review all documents for all their agents within 7 days.

I have a well-established buyers list, have connections, verified that my documents are legal, reached out to realtors, etc.

You'll want to sit down with an attorney to discuss all these issues and have him/her draft some documents that are right for you and your family.

You would have ongoing filing requirements with the State and would need to keep business records and documentation.
