the Scenario:We have an LLC, 2 long term rentals, 1 short term rental, 1 future short term rental about to undergone renovation.

Short-term rentals on platforms like Airbnb or VRBO can cover costs.

I will also be tracking expenses related to repairs, maintenance, travel to and from NV, hotel stays, meals, gas, and other regular business costs.In the long term, I aim to purchase additional properties under the business name, but I understand I need to establish at least two years of income and credit history before doing so.The issue I’m encountering is that my accountant has not provided any guidance on how to structure this scenario.

I have done 1 year and 3 year terms over the years with them.

Of course, some of the potential tenants want flexible terms at start to get themselves set up in the space. 

I'm interested in everyone's opinions on using a HELOC to purchase turn-key rentals for the short term and covering principal paydown across all new mortgages / loans ( HELOC ) through excess income. 

Hi Thu, self-managed STR owner in the California High Desert and realtor who has helped several clients purchase properties for the purpose of renting on a short-term basis.General questions pertaining to the overall STR landscape should not incur a cost when directed at a PM/co-host.

He is very interested in real estate business especially long-term rental properties in Dubai, but he has limited knowledge of rental properties, so he joined this community to get a good understanding of how real estate works, and how to manage his properties while living in USA, and to get in touch with real estate owners.   

The short answer is that the longer you live in it the more gain will disappear. 

Lastly, have you tried running the #s to look at long-term appreciation on a unit like this vs. a Single-family or Multi-family property?
