Hey BP crew, other than the Apartments.com or Redfin's, what are you using to evaluate potential rental rates in an area you are considering investing in? Thank in advance!

Thx for your POV Brett, I just picked up a few samples of Lifeproof from the Depot, looks good and the lifetime warranty is a no brainer

What have you guys been using for kitchen and bathroom flooring, imagine this LVP can work in the kitchen, but maybe too much chance of water for bathroom?

Thx again

Hey BP community, I’m remodeling a single rental, current floors are a mess and I’m considering laminate wood throughout (vs carpet or hard woods)

Any feedback in terms of durability vs hardwood?

Thank you!

I’ve recently refinanced my first rental property in Ohio, and am looking at next investment (s), with cash-flow (and potential of modest appreciation) primary goals.

Interested to see how our SC community would use $100k to maximize investment in 2019?

Thx in advance for you ideas-
