welcome to bigger pockets there is a ton of material on here and the podcast have really good information also. 

Thank you for the input, i am just trying to really think of other things to look at when I am flipping and but I understand now that it is important to really understand your neighborhood and market rather then fixing one thing! 

So I know the most profitable and obvious things to fix that buyers like is the kitchen and bathroom but have you guys found that fixing other key parts of the house adds more value then the bathroom or the kitchen? When you're buying and flipping or buying distressed properties! 

Yes this does I will keep that in mind. Another question to you is, how did you come to find your property management firm and what really sold you on them? @Pancham G.

Another thing to think about is Individual leases for rooms! This would attract more people because the they wouldn't have to be responsible for other people leaving the area.

I think another thing to think about is this is student housing. I have friends that live in Eugene Oregon and Corvallis Oregon both Major universities and I see the houses that they live in. Non of which are remotely nice. While I know that these are not in your area, tuition is expensive here, so we see a lot of students living wherever they can just to save a buck. So beside the estimated home cost what has tuition been doing in Gainesville  and what is your local renting cost around your area. This will help you price your rent and maybe increase it depending on what others are charging.

Wow congrats! I have been interested in vacation rentals and have always seen them as a cash cow if found in the right place but I never really took into consideration how much work they would actually be. If you don't live in the same area as your rental do you find it to be a difficult task to respond to your guest request like the need for an iron?

Why is it so much trouble to find real estate in this area! I would think it would be harder to manage those properties out of state! @Larry Fried

Thanks guys I really appreciate the support from you guys!!

Hey Terry! Yeah I just moved here from Washington so I am trying to connect with local people to really learn about the market here.
