Here are the steps that you can follow. 

I understand some is necessary.

Hi all, In MA, my understanding is that landlords have to hold security deposits in a bank within the state that is interest bearing.

Market research, targeted marketing, and a keen understanding of the evolving needs of potential tenants are critical components of a successful investment strategy in mid-term rentals.Conclusion:As we navigate the complexities of today's real estate investment landscape, mid-term rentals offer a compelling case for those looking to diversify their portfolio and capitalize on the changing dynamics of work and lifestyle.

(source)It also states this:  The following requirements must be met by taxpayers or RPEs to qualify for this safe harbor:*Separate books and records are maintained to reflect income and expenses for each rental real estate enterprise.

Yea I understand that.

If you're willing to bend your timeline a little to give yourself the best shot at qualifying for 1031 exchanges and being super tax efficient with your properties, you could try doing the following: - Hold each successive property for at least 12 months before selling - make sure that you acquire property in one tax year and then don't sell that same property until the following tax yearI want to stress that you do not automatically lose out on 1031 treatment by not taking these steps, and similarly you don't automatically qualify for 1031 treatment by simply taking these steps. 

This form is not very difficult to fill out, but it is important that you do it on time each year following a 1031 exchange that leaves CA. 

A good slogan to use to understand Cash Flow is:"The Investment doesn't cash flow.... but the INVESTOR does."

MY biggest concern is when it comes to understanding the market changes and how to analyze what city is best.
