My question is how long do you personally wait to see how your Airbnb venture is going to go until strongly contemplating long term?

Not done it personally but I've helped investors do it.Keep in mind that most programs will require you to have cash reserves to do it.

If this is a very angry person you might also consult a lawyer on your options should they threaten you personally. 

I also know there are side hustles, wholesaling etc, but I am not looking for ideas that will delay the purchase process time wise.Can anyone share some knowledge or experience tailored to my scenario, if there is a way to purchase a house asap in this case?

I have told him that I will share my experience on social media if he doesn't finish by today but we still have quite a bit left to do.

I understand if this person is renting the whole apartment unit, but how does the ESA works out in shared housing?

My personal preference is warm white - the ones that look like a tungsten light. 

And even though virtually every sponsor agreement allows me to share investment information with others who might be advising me on it (especially when club members are bound by an NDA), I still ask the sponsor if I can share it, because it's a test.

Exploring out-of-state options for a duplex can be a viable strategy, but it's important to weigh the pros and cons based on your financial situation, investment objectives, and personal preferences.

I will always recommend using someone that comes as a referral from another person that has used that company/person.
