My father is also well connected with an investment group and want to start a flipping business, but doesn't really know the business.

Winter months tend to be very slow, but the busy summer months make up for this. 

My business partner and I co-own (50/50) a STR in Hawaii that we both manage on our own.

Can an STR investor refinance a 1031X for capital towards another STR (if that's the business?) 

BUT, they also need to do a good job if they want to stay in business. 

Not a tiny house, a shed you could order from a shed store.

I am trying to rent out a property where it's already zoned business and personal use:  someone can live upstairs in a 2 bed 2 bath, and run their business downstairs.

there is commercial sales and leasing.. there is PM business there is time share sales.

Look at the projections and understand the business plan and risks associated before investing.

@Matt LopezNot an economist but smaller banks will be in a lot of trouble, banks will also tighten lending standards making it harder for people and businesses to get loans which typically leads to higher unemployment due to cash flow issuesThis will then lead to softening in housing.
