However, if anyone has recommendations on alternative methods for securing capital like private lenders, please let me know.Also, I'm in the process of learning how to underwrite through online courses, but finding rental comps for MF seems a bit more complicated than single family homes.

We also currently have an LLC set up for our short term rental operations which we have been already running out of our spare room in our home which will cease when we rent it out.

However, this requires careful planning and adherence to 1031 rules.Holding and Renting Units:Retained Units: For the units you retain (one for your business and one for rental income), you will continue to benefit from rental income and potential appreciation.Depreciation: You can continue to depreciate the retained units, which provides additional tax benefits by offsetting rental income.With these considerations, this approach allows you to leverage the benefits of a 1031 exchange while maximizing the potential of your investment in the commercial property.

I have a rental condo in Denver that I need to do either a cashout refi or some kind of delayed financing on.

So my brother and I are saving for a rental property.

Cousin A currently lives in one half of their primary residence and rents out the other half.Cousin B has a rental property they want to get rid of by doing a 1031 exchange.If Cousin B buys 50% of Cousin A's house as tenants in common, can A & B essentially switch over the rental income to B, whereby B reports all rental income and expenses on their taxes and A reports no rental income and expenses?

I don't follow the short term rental trends, but long term rentals are easy to get up and running with a good return. 

I been investing since 2017 and my rental income is 100% of my income.

Currently working on analyzing leads accurately relative to rental income and interior of property when determining offer price. 

That's when my journey of maybe I will start having a rental property.
