I’m finding sites like Rentler or Azibo only allow landlords to set a fixed amount each month for rent and I really don’t want to be charging my tenants rent and utilities on a different platform.

Airbnb is just a platform to list a STR.I have found the best vacation rentals I have stayed in where self managed.

I hope that you continue to use this group and the forums to help you reach your goals.Was there someone you missed connecting with or forgot to get info after a great chat?

If you want we can chat and I can walk you through my 5 step process to qualify people!

This platform has a lot to offer.

Hope this helps, happy to connect and chat about your multi family goals

Discount points are paid to everybody "wins" (I can't really explain it, but if want to chat send me a message and we can discuss as best i can how the bond market works).  6 months doesn't quite make the cut, but I'm sure its a compromise as a consumer protection, getting to the 1yr owner occupation requirement, and allowing an owner to potentially resell (lets face it, you can't effectively "disallow" somebody from selling).I think the guildines to 6 months on Title is to protect the lenders and the secondary market. 

Happy to chat more about my experiences if it would be helpful. 

They have veto power on decision-making and help drive the train--investors already have the right to meet every so often and vote on things.Happy to chat off-line if you'd like.

Add in the updates that occur each week both to the platforms and local regulations, and I swear it's enough to justify losing your mind.
