I wouldn’t take real estate or investment advice from someone who says “she didn’t have no…”

Oh… carry on.

She “liquidated” her credit cards offered to her by the banks for $150k. Lol. False.

You need to get rid of TikTok if you are even considering following financial advice found there.

There's one guy who posts videos about short term rental property purchases, he's so upbeat about violating IRS and other lending laws.

Spoiler, don't lie to your loan officer that the house you're buying is indeed going to be your primary residence.

You think she got 150k in biz credit cards right away after opening an LLC?

These airbnb clowns just rent those properties then airbnb them out

Until things break and you need the cash or ability to get loans to pay for repairs.

Guilty ;) I own my other one though. My rental one has made me about $50k over two years. I dont recommend "buying" one with credit cards lol

Property owners allow this?

Are you required to carry a certain insurance policy?

Depends on the owner. Mine is a large, newish apartment complex. I talked to the owner, told him exactly what id be doing. I am a good renter for them. Rent is autodrafted. The apartment always stays clean and staged well. They can use it to show potential renters when guests arent there.

It would be unwise to try to do this without informing the owner first.

I don't understand this. You rented an apartment- and then you list it on AirBnB, and make enough money doing this to make it worth it to keep renting the apartment? Where is this? Why would people pay to stay in an apartment complex?

This is eye opening for me.

Oh yes. Im not down on giving out personal details...but ill give you some numbers. Its a 3br 3.5ba apartment. I paid $27000 in rent/utilities/cleaning and grossed about $45000 in revenue for the year. By no means is this a magic bullet easy money in the bank thing. I spent plenty of time cleaning/preparing/dealing with guests etc. As you can see this one apartment isnt making me a baller but its a nice supplement to my main income.

I realize that this occurs.. and for anyone who is able to supplement their income using this strategy- i am genuinely happy for you.. but i guess.. im just surprised that landlords would agree to let tenants do this, like ever .. obviously it happens though, so it’s not as unbelievable as it seems .

I think it only makes sense in specific circumstances. That said, if someone is interested in doing this, call some apartment owners. Youll be surprised some may not care
