(BTW, I've created a spreadsheet to estimate the rental income required to qualify for specific properties and am happy to share it with anyone interested).After conducting some research and attending open houses, I found very few properties that meet my financial criteria within San Diego.

@Angie Hensley Most states require a lease to identify the owner of a leased property, whether a person, trust, LLC, IRA, etc.Landlord = Lord of the Land = Owner per deedAgent = someone legally representing the ownerProperty Manager = Agent

Obviously your top 5 or 7 in front to capture a guests attention, then pictures seem to  show the way the property flows not random, then usually floor layouts and misc stuff like that at the end for those folks that want to look at everything.3 of my 4 properties have kitchens for the lead view instead of a pool.  

I know that nothing is free, and that some programs require you to pay the DPA loan back before you move out but what else is there to have in mind that I should know about.

it is not required in FL where I would buy.  

Hey folks,Question for the medium term rental crew: how much time/effort does it take to self-manage a typical 1bd/1ba furnished MTR?

If you need them to do messaging or calling, I recommend folks from Mexico and Latin America, they have the best English and hustle culture.

This would be subleasing and it would require the landlord's permission.

They are ultimately the same thing but I know that many lenders require seasoning.   

😎I've never required my SF buyers to get lender's insurance in my dozen or so sales, but I made sure to use a REC, not a Note and DofT.
