You know there is a federal law prohibiting that correct?

@Mike HoranKeep in mind, there are prohibited transaction rules that will prevent you from receiving any immediate benefit from the retirement fund investments.

FHA is what governs prohibited acts by landlords.Service Animals and ESAs are indeed different, but are lumped together due to these confusion, and because many people buy these $20 SA vests and put them on their pets, and start to walk them into libraries, restaurants, stores, clinics etc...and it's totally unfair to those who have a legit need since we as Landlords are so sick and tired of these ESA scammers.

I did put one in a 3rd floor unit which has been successful but its classified as efficiency apartment-any larger of a footprint I think the cost would've been prohibitive.

Attorney General Bob Ferguson said his office would be looking closing at those complaints.The extended eviction moratorium will now also cover people in housing such as motels and Airbnbs, on public camping grounds and mobile home owners on leased lots.Additionally, the order prohibits landlords from threatening to add late fees or charges for non-payment, as well as charge rent for housing where a tenant’s access to the unit was prevented by COVID-19.

Yes, landlords got screwed, but it's not like we're bar owners and Prohibition put us out of business. 

A few years ago where a solid 11% cap was not uncommon are gone and the cap rates now seem prohibitive. 

We manage a large group of homes on section 8 and while we would love to house those families in need the administration and red tape in the program makes being profitable for a landlord prohibitive often in okc.7. don't pick your manager because they are the cheapest. 

Probably 10-20 years ago they never thought about STR, now many don't like them....and they update the rules and regs or CCR.Lots of people on here like lots of risk, but if your economic model depends on STR vs LTR, I would not buy this particular home or any in an HOA...unless you know 100% that they are STR friendly.Most of the condos in my area now prohibit STR.   

It's not a prohibitively big lift to get licensed, and may pay you back multiple times.
