In a time of rapid appreciation or a bull market this is where that 6 month piece can come in handy.

Hana,Great question and the good news for you is you paid for the appraisal so it belongs to you and it can be used at another bank.

Does this place have a STR license or can it get one? 

So may be trust can own directly.

I suppose that requires a second (or third or fourth) opinion, but if he's right, where can I pull cash from to both complete our primary home, and refill the RE emergency fund I'm currently depleting?

I reiterated they can cancel now and check out tomorrow, or send a different alteration request that was a middle ground for us (roughly 50% refund) - G: alteration is a larger refund and it is possible through Airbnb app.

Depending on your goals and strengths/weaknesses, there are a thousand different directions you can go with your REI journey. 

As a reminder, the San Antonio City Council approved new STR rules (you can see my post regarding this here!). 

How can I proceed with the eviction on these grounds?

I actually spent some time stationed not too far from there, so I can definitely relate to Florida’s charm.
