Hey Jesse I'm seeing a lot of flippers at lower price points, quick turnaround. Not a ton of flipping compared to previous years, other strategy I'm seeing is STR's or rent by the room/padsplits.

Rent by the room gives you the opportunity to get more renters to cover the mortgage, making it easier to stabilize the asset. Same with STR's, you have more opportunity to change rates depending on time of year which this time of year is great for Phoenix.

Would love to connect and see what you're looking at, I'll shoot you a PM!

Hi Cara I'm an agent and investor here in the Phoenix area. 

Based on not having water, roads, etc. you could still do a tiny home or RV space there if you put in electrical hookups and a septic tank. I think that really depends on the draw to the property like does it have good views, close to a lake, room for motorsports. 

Another option could be to sell and put that into something appreciating faster and maybe a bit closer to where you live. 


Overall it definitely depends on what your goals are with real estate investing, I'd be happy to get on a call to discuss with you!

Agree with the other guys. 4 units is best, you have more tenants and opportunity to increase rents if one or more tenants turn over. 

Happy to discuss further with you, sent you a PM.

Quote from @Kristin Solbach:

First time investor here that is feeling pretty stuck.. we want to get started in one way or the other with lot of different approaches and advice out there. We hired a tax advisor and were told to get an STR this year to help offset our taxes with the STR loophole... One Cost Segregation Study is included in our package with the Tax team as well and the tax savings would actually help us to get started investing of course. We only have 30-40K down payment and are hesitant about 2 things:

1) Investing into a property purely for STR... we would want to ensure it can still pay for itself as an LTR if need be PLUS ideally we would not invest more than 350-400K. Is there a market out there in which this could work?

2) Using our HELOC to supplement the down payment.. we do have some bonus payments coming at the end of the year we could pay it down plus the tax savings could help us pay it off, so maybe it would be worth it in the end?

Has anyone invested in STR for the loophole reason? Any advice? Any good and bad experiences welcome. 
Thanks a million, Kristin


 Hi Kristin, my business partner do this in the Phoenix market actually. Would be happy to talk with you about our buy box in the area so you have an idea of what types of properties and what areas will give you a good return at the same time offering you those tax benefits.
