Episode notes
ADVICE

Special Use Permits and Value

  • A special use permit increases property value by legitimizing income streams, not inherently.
  • Focus on increasing revenue, which banks and buyers value, not just the permit itself.
ADVICE

Balancing Equity and Long-Term Goals

  • Sell the appreciating house and buy two more: one to house hack, one as a rental.
  • Prioritize building equity and cash flow over a potential retirement home in 30 years.
ADVICE

LLCs for Short-Term Rentals

  • You don't need a separate LLC for every property, focus on managing equity within entities.
  • As equity grows, consider moving individual high-equity properties into their own LLCs.
