Looking for advice on what brokerages or services you enjoy using.

Truly I’m going to go check out your example with my week of vacation coming up to just write it all out.

My thought is refinance and then use a 10% down vacation home loan to fund the deal.

We've been looking for a second property as a vacation home but to also serve as STR. 

Escrow really dropped the ball since that lien should've been discovered and resolved prior to buyer giving their landlord 'notice to vacate'.Now Seller is asking for a minimum 30 day extension to try locate lienholder and clear lien however, buyers would have no accommodations to stay in the interim, as their landlord stated they have to be out in 14 days since landlord already filled their vacancy with another tenant and have no other units available.

I went to Mexico on vacation and brought back a set of 4 tequila bottles which I put up on the bar as decoration until I wanted to drink them.

It's difficult to get an STR permit from the city (STR defined by City of Austin as less than 30 consecutive days), so I recommend renting for 30+ days at a time to families relocating to Austin or remote works who want to "vacation" in Austin while continuing to work.

If you’re lazy enough to go with Vacassa versus a local vacation rental shop, finding a co-host to manage your rental for you, or learning how to self manage yourself, why would you not think you’re going to pay more than 18%?

I am an avid fly fishermen and live in Idaho, but enjoy saltwater fishing equally. 

Honestly I don't enjoy what I do anymore.
