I did not do this with two partnerships and one ended in a lawsuit and the other cost me tens of thousands of dollars.

Get with a good agent who understands short term rentals because the more of these you do then you can scale the insurance under a Business Owner Provider Policy (BOP) and then you don't end up with a dozen individual policies out there for each property that cost you a fortune.

You need to stop or it will just get worse and then you will be back here with serious problems.You need to politely, yet firmly, tell her that she has gotten too demanding and that from now on she needs to handle everything herself...except major problems like non-working appliances.

I have wonderful long-term tenants whose lease ends June 30th.

Lease option is my fall back.

For my CPA SMEs - I guess it's probably late now, but (assuming the bill passes) how did you advise your clients on the proposed retroactive changes to the bonus depreciation for 2023 - from 80% back to 100% - did you advise to file extensions or amend next year or something else?

Having a 24 month term on the front end will also make my job easier doing the take-out loan when it's time to refinance into permanent debt, because there's room in there for a full year of tax returns to have been done in the middle (if your exit plan is to sell, it'll also make it easier on your buyer who will presumably be willing to pay a higher price if they can get an A-paper good mortgage).Ask for a 24 month term, tell your contractor you want it done in a year (and make it financially worth their while if they can pull it off), internally/mentally plan on 18 months, and I'm putting you on notice now to do your tax returns on time, rather than extending them (don't fight me on this, please just do it).Trying to get a renovation mortgage like this for only 1 point is likely a waste of your time, but if you want to ask, after you've secured the above as a 'done deal,' go for it, can't hurt. 

I was able to get them for free in the end.

For the last 3 months, etc.Per the original post, if you are only looking for syndicators that project the highest return, you are likely to end up with groups that are great salesman, but likely not the best operators.

I have to lots back to back .
