Also, yes it is a tenant friendly area but that is also a bit overblown since evictions are very low here in san Diego, last I checked it was less than 1 out of 100 and in areas around the country where evictions can happen practically overnight, some of those areas can have extremely high eviction rates especially a lot of those areas with high poverty rates.

Hey All,Wondering if anyone has seen this out there in the last month or if anyone has a referral of any banks currently offering this loan option?

Hey, I'm brand new to real estate investing (I just bought my own home last month, no investment properties yet), but I'm in Vermont and want to get in to it.

I just spoke with Steve Lansbury VP of underwriting at Freddie Mac last Thursday at the MFE conference in Vegas and he said that they no longer have issues with STRs as long as it's under 10% of total units and that they would be willing to discuss it on a case by case basis. 

Just joined this forum last week and finding it super insightful.My offer on a home just got accepted last night and was looking for any advice from seasoned investors - I have 10 days from now to do an inspection and finalize everything so I wanted to ask if there were any red flags before I go all in.The home is 190k, 7.5% interest rate, 30 year mortage. 

I have been buying and selling real estate for the last 20 years and I recently became a licensed salesperson in Mississippi. 

Unless it is your last home, buying another primary residence and using the previous one as a rental is a great way to build wealth through operating income properties.4.

As tax CPAs and EAs we're less than 3 weeks away from a major statutory deadline, so we're pretty busy to say the least.If the convo can wait until post 10/15 (i.e. you're looking for help for the 2018 tax year), I'm sure most on your list would be fine with a 15-30 minute phone chat in late October/early November to determine if there's a good fit.

I’m looking for a CPA to do my last year taxes as they got complicated.  

If I was to return to Denver I wouldn’t look to live in this house.Should I rent for the next 2-3 and sell just before the 2 of the last 5 years rule?
