Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing substantial amounts of money into our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon.

I have also owned a cleaning company that I started over 13 years ago.   

I am 1 out of about 50 people we know of scammed by these two companies. 

My wife and I own 14 short term rentals in Carolina Beach, NC, and we also co-own a property management company that manages another 54 listings.  

I set up a property management company this year and intend to get into the business of property management.

Getting estimates for insurance before making the purchase is important, as insurance companies typically charge higher prices for properties like this.Best of Luck!

@Joseph Bui would you mind please sharing which companies you use?

Our company is possibly looking for other financing options for our future rentals and I came along corevestfinance.com.

It's not foolproof but if another investor has used a company and has had good experience then that usually get's us in a good starting place.

Be sure you are working with a CPA that understands the value of leveraging the tax benefits on investment property and working with an engineering-based cost segregation company with on-site property reviews and audit defense at no cost if ever needed during your ownership.
