Ideally there'd be second factor requirements on any transfer, and especially "suspicious" ones (as defined by an entire team of people who monitor that sort of thing).Cookie theft and other takeover scenarios are a thing.

If we can't buy 2nds, we just buy more low balance 1sts.There are data service providers, such as DistressedPro.com that can give you some more color on what product is currently in the marketplace (and who owns it).Best,Dave

@Bracken Bjorn The answer is in the local data...and the data might look differently to you than someone else...it's really about your goals, tolerance for risk, available resources, and personal preference...

So much so, that according to AirDNA data there are 4000+ properties on airbnb / vrbo in this destination, though the property that I am evaluating has been used as a primary residence and has no rental history.

Maybe Evolve would allow you to transfer all bookings you currently have for a fee?

If you don't live there this is important for everyone and good investment if you ask me.I have to think a court would listen to some reason over the data.

@John Kelly You’re right that transferring your homesteaded property to an LLC can often disqualify you from the homestead and veteran tax exemptions because these typically apply only to individuals, not LLCs.

I’m also currently looking to upgrade to a software that allows me to transfer friends from PM to owner and will help me generate form 1099at the end of the year.

That's a spreadsheet that doesn't transfer to a real life leasing scenario because its not permitted within the zoning code.If the property is zoned RM1, then  perhaps you can lease to 8 unrelated individuals by converting the building into multiple units.

Here is my current set up:1) ShowMojo for managing the self showing listings (It has some self showing anti-fraud services, syncs with smart lockbox to issues codes, etc etc)2) CodeBox Jr smart lockbox where I have the keys3) ReoLink Go Plus Cellular Camera with a $5 per month T mobile data only sim card.
