Most DC HOAs actively dissuade short-term rentals and allow no more than two leases per year per unit, which is consistent with DC housing law.

Been thinking about this for quite some time, passive investing versus active investing...…..

@Matthew Thibeault I'm not sure what part of the country you live in but I would recommend making a list of the 5 most active investors in your area and locating their office and I would walk right in the front door and tell them exactly what you just wrote on this forum.

(Even discussing a home for sale that you don't already own is a license-required activity in MA)Remember that we operate on 100% commission. 

Check for investor FB groups and REIA’s in your local area to speak with professionals actively working on projects that you can meet and potentially work with. 

She will say no he hasn’t .... he just visits.... has he done activity that you believe to be felonious on the property?

In fact i only have 2 goals for this year.By year end 2019, I’ll have:-100 active members in my REI mastermind group (W2 Capitalist)-10k Members in my closed FB Group (Real Estate Investing for the W2 Employee)Thanks for the accountability!

It's also great seeing how many are active on this local forum- I had no idea and rarely check BP unfortunately. 

I'd like to declare myself a "real estate professional" as I'm on sabbatical from my W2 job this year and could say I have spent the obligatory hours on real estate work, however, on googling this issue, many people advise against because real estate activity has to be active management and I have professional managers doing the day-to-day.  

There are at least a dozen CPAs actively posting on this forum."
