Hello, Srikanth.

Here are the first 10+ items we use when evaluating an opportunity like the one you have right now.

Hopefully, the seller or your soon-to-be property manager can provide answers for you.  If they can't, I'm happy to try to help.

Thanks,

Hi, Srikanth.

Congratulations!

Are you using a licensed real estate agent to represent you?  

Thanks,

Hi, Bret.

Welcome to BiggerPockets!

I'm in Memphis, but am also actively involved in Central Arkansas and Eastern AR.  

I have 2 good friends in NW AR.

The first is Jerry Allred with Allred Properties.

The other is Brant Barnes who recently helped start the NWA-REIA.

I'm happy to introduce you to them if you don't know them already.

Best regards,

Hi, Brian.

Welcome to BiggerPockets!  

We are active investors, agents, and property managers in North MS and are happy to help however we can.

Years ago, we were active in Tupelo and used Mike Deaton for our appraisal work.

I don't have any personally experience with SLS, but I'll ask around our office and let you know if anyone else does.

Best regards,

Michael,

Congratulations on the new property!

We use Rentometer, Zillow, MLS, Craigslist, and similar sites to quickly see what the rent ranges are for specific areas. We also call For Rent signs in the neighborhood.

As for capturing the highest rent possible, my experience confirms what your thinking.  Finer finishing touches should help distinguish your house and command a higher rent.

Great job!

Welcome to BiggePockets, Todd!  I think you'll learn a lot from the BP community.  

In addition to James' great suggestion above, I would recommend reading the blogs.  

I would also encourage you to contribute to the forum discussions whenever you have questions or comments.  Personally, I'm learning a ton that way.

By the way, we invest in north MS, but hope to make it to the Jackson area before too long.

Let's keep in touch.

Douglas

Will the owner consider seller financing on this one?

Thanks,
