Would I be able to utilize program benefits or start applying without being a resident of the state?

Hoping to pick the much bigger brains here for ideas.FYI - this would be a long term hold, not worried about appreciation issues as it would be a cash flow rental.

If this starts picking up, it’s worth adding your listing to one or two other major marketers: VRBO and HomeAway.

MS don't fool around.. they picked him up on Friday night ( you know on purpose) so he had to sit in the cooler until Monday when the judge got in to set bail.But every state is different on how they handle this stuff.in the list I gave you I have funded wholesalers and flippers in all those cities Save NY ... every other one I have funded in... along with half a dozen more cities not mentioned that are too tough to wholesale in in the first place like CA..wholesaling is a very very tough gig.. and not a starter strategy.. the guys I know that are successful have big business's with huge budgets to make this work.. its not a hey I have no money I am going to wholesale and get money to buy and hold.. can that work . sure a blind squirrel finds an acorn.. but to really make any money at it .. its a full blown business.. with all the things you need in a mature business enterprise.. staff  capital... experience and UBER sales skills.

Ughh....You're incorrect....The scenario you picked out of the article is for a residence that was a rental FIRST...You just proved my point....NQU can only occur BEFORE it was used as a primary residence...That section of tax law is clearly explained by Kitces...It's different if you rent the house out before you occupy it as a primary residence after purchasing it....I even posted this in the post you just quoted me on....What you posted matches exactly the scenario I already painted:"That's not accurate at all.
