Are you a good self-learner?

The #1 website that has been servicing the Mid-Term Rental and monthly stay market for over a decade is MonthlyRentalsByOwner.comThey don't charge service fees (like the big sites VRBO & AirBnB), plus you get immediate direct communication with the guest.They only charge an annual subscroption up-front of $173/year per property, and that also gets you posted as well to their Snowbird website for monthly renters, www.AmericanSnowbird.com - all included in that one annual fee.

I've found that asking prices and listing status are often more accurate on those direct sites than on MLS.  

In September 2023, the renter stopped paying, leading to eviction in January 2024, resulting in a loss of five months' rent.

@J Newman your husband can roll that into a self directed ira and use all the funds for investing and no loan to pay back unless you get financing on the property.  

Normally I only rep the owner, even if tenant comes directly to me. 

Hey @Chris Dawson, There is alot to unpack here, but please note your wife getting her real estate license in of it self does not qualify you to use those losses (created by a cost segregation) against your active income.

Looks like you guys are headed in the right direction.

Two steps forward, one step back always moves you in the right direction.

As far as I know, MLS access is only for dues paying licensed members, so unless you get licensed and pay probably $1000 or more a year, you won't be able to get direct access....and you'll also pay for some additional headaches.
