There are some owner-occupied segments with people who share motivating factors for selling their home.Seniors with Long-time Ownership: often ready to downsize or transition to assistance.Homeowners with Low Financial Stability Scores (FSS): Struggling financially and likely ready to cash in on their asset.Both these categories have additional advantages in that they probably don’t haven’t been updated and may have deferred maintenance.

I've taken advantage of some of them and moved money around to get that 0% for quicker pay down. 

So far we see about 25% of our resident base at the most risk of income interruption, which could be a hit to our income but hopefully not devastating, especially if we can stay ahead of it.We are also initiating refinancing some assets to take advantage of the attractive interest rates!  

We have seen guests take advantage of loose cancellation policies (ala AirBNB) to cancel their regular rate stay and rebook at some owners’ panic rates.

Consider the fact that  more than likely  those who had already applied with a broker or bank and already  had their documents in a file were able to take advantage Of this very short lived rate bonus. 

That way we can take advantage of things like some savvy folks did in 2008-2011.

In addition, if you are self-employed with no full-time employees you may wish to consider opening a Solo 401k instead of a self-directed IRA as it has several advantages over an IRA LLC such as much higher contribution limits, direct checkbook control (i.e. no need to have the account at a specialty trust company), ability to take a 401k loan, exclusion from unrelated debt finance income tax with respect to investment in real estate acquired with non-recourse financing, etc.In addition, please note if you purchase debt-financed real estate with your IRA, unrelated debt finance income tax should apply to the income attributable to debt-financed real estate held by your IRA.

Take advantage of uncertainty in the market! 

There are advantages of having a living trust as a sole owner or co-owner of an LLC is that it allows the grantor to simultaneously manage a business while taking advantage of a trust's flexibility.

What do think are the advantages of doing it that way?
