This will keep you out of seasoning trouble when it comes time to refinance.  

You can do a wrap and refinance once seasoned/stabilized.  

All the units in the area are full, which indicates there is some demand at least during the busy season. 

Refi after they season .

Next time, when you refer to J Scotts book (yes, i’ve read it), add 25% and that will come close to SoCal rates (except electrical) then to top it off add 10-20% during peak season (these months and last quarter).

Sell your home, get your new home free and clear, take out a home equity loan or HELOC to purchase a rental property, then after some seasoning, refinance and put the lien on your rental property and own your home free and clear, and then rinse/repeat this process!

The buyer backed out and the builder called me to ask me my opinion on market rents for Airbnb/STR for summer season (this property is located at the Jersey Shore).

I know this is a lot of questions and probably obvious to a seasoned renter but with the two of us renting our first unit of a tri-plex, we just want to make sure we do everything by the books.Thanks again to all for the help we really appreciate it.

It's not that I am untrustworthy or can't do my job, or that I'm "not" a seasoned Realtor, I charge a retainer because I AM A BUSINESS.

Filter by bedroom count or square footage and you should get a pretty good estimate of what renovated homes in the area are selling for.One thing to note is that these sites don't always have the most up-to-date information, so it's always good to double check with a trusted real estate agent or seasoned investor.
