Me and my business partner have recently started an LLC and are looking to invest in fix and flip properties.

@Bruce Lynn - Definitely seems like it makes the most sense for someone with a legal background or private equity.I actually believe that all businesses are similar in the fact if you are building them to scale even just a little bit they always hit a wall...this just seems like niche that needs more attention to detail and would be best for someone with a specific background in liens especially here in Chicago where we know it gets super complicated.

Have an idea of the limits you want quoted     - Building - cost to rebuild    - Contents: do you have any business property there (appliances that are not built-in,         maintenance equiptment, furnishings in common areas) - what is the cost to replace them    - Business Income:  What is the total rents minus the costs that don't continue    - Liability:  What limit are you looking for2.

We require the borrower to be an entity and the loan purpose to be for business use (i.e. flipping).

I dont personally find much to like about the Oregon coast other than in my business I would never spend time there..

It's a great way to build wealth and learn the business. 

I'm putting a business plan together for a short term rental and I can find plenty of data from comps on projected vacancy rates of established rentals, however, I know I can't expect to come out of the gate with 50-60% occupancy.

For now it's business as usual.Major cities, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Sedona and others, have adopted their own STR rules and regulations, primarily requiring operators to register their rentals.
