I do have a good radar for judging people I worked as a nurse in Prisons including working  Additionally, I self manage a property in Arizona out of state.I do realize I need to build my team for out-of-state investing but I am not at that point yet first I need to start analyzing the area.Thank you!!!

Emerald coast is great as well.But if I can make a suggestion.

Additionally, inquire specifically about Non-QM loan options and whether they have experience assisting self-employed individuals in situations similar to yours.Remember to carefully review the terms, interest rates, and fees associated with any loan offer to ensure it aligns with your financial goals and investment strategy.

I would suggest a few things: 1. don't make repetitive log entries every day " managed rental, did calls" copied and pasted 50 times likely would be thrown out in an audit for example. 2. make sure you are materially participating in your rental activities. 750 hours is not enough, you need to pass the second test of material participation in the rental activities to turn that activity from passive to active and claim the deductions on your active income. 

They may not bring in STR money, but it is a lot easier to run them due to lower turnover (1-6 months).That’s what I’m gathering, thanks for the additional options.

Does anyone have a suggestion for an in-person (Denver) or virtual meetup/group/class/etc that could help me establish some consistency and accountability (and hopefully networking) with real estate investing? 

I agree that gives a bit more credibility, so thank you for those suggestions!

Some grants are deferred payments, or will be an additional amount added on to your mortgage. 

I don't want to have to refinance due to a very low interest rate on this property.Are there other suggestions if quit claim deeding this isn't an option? 

In my mind, that outweighs the additional interest you will pay.
