As a bay area native (born an raised in SF), I personally prefer to stay away from legislation that will handcuff me as a landlord moving into the future, which is why I started investing in the Midwest back in 2021.

Right now I'm at about 85% of bookings through VRBO, 10% through Airbnb, and 5% through my own website.

While you can use your own funds, alternative sources like hard money lenders and private money lenders offer distinct advantages.

I didn't have a lot of high-end furnishings in my own home when we had a toddler.

I've got a 778, I own a house that I inherited when my dad passed, with roughly 350k in equity.

Isn’t owning a MHP where you own the mobile homes and lease them out just the same as owning an apartment complex but with the greater problems of maintenance, low end tenants, etc.?  

Hi all:I own a couple STRs and am considering buying one in Fort Worth.
