I also wouldn’t even know where or how to start with seller financing, how to come up with the terms, etc.

Long-term rentals are much more difficult today, but that doesn't mean they are dead.

We are looking to buy multifamily properties and get away from long term single family rental houses.

San Antonio has been one of the cities with the largest increase in short-term rentals in recent years.

Now I just need to know how much we are looking at for a loan and see if it's something we could even pursue.

That is what I am uncertain about but know I have to be prepared for it in terms of the hidden costs beyond the external fixes for the property.

@Brittany HeilI'm not certain if this applies to all markets, but our lender (and loan product) and property insurance company expected us to move into the Primary residence within 1-2 months.

I already invested in 2 properties the traditional way (conventional loans) but am realizing that money is always going to be an issue.

For those who have tried Airbnb long term rentals (typical more than a month), how do you factor in the utility bills?

The options contracts I've done in NC (only 4 or 5, me as seller, all post-GR) set the 'contract price' and terms.
