Section 721 of the Internal Revenue code allows an investor to exchange property held for investment or business purposes for shares in a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) or an Operating Partnership without triggering a taxable event.Many investors are aware of a 1031 Exchange where an investor must find a replacement property to defer capital gains taxes on the property that was sold.

Since the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) doesn’t consider child support taxable income, I would not consider it in the rent calculation unless you have a HUD-specific home.According to hud.gov, “[rental property] owners must count alimony or child support amounts awarded by the court unless the applicant certifies that payments are not being made and that he or she has taken all reasonable legal actions to collect amounts due, including filing with the appropriate courts or agencies responsible for enforcing payment.”So, does child support count as income for renting?

I agree with @Bryant Xavier I use Furnished Finder as you can input your proximity to the local hospitals and a lot of traveling nurses use it!

Many travelers are looking for that option since finding pet-friendly hotels can be a hassle.

I understand Google continues to push into this space and disrupt the online travel agencies, so the landscape might be changing.
