Quote from @Alyson Gordon:

I live in Raleigh and have a close friend who is an active investor in San Antonio, TX. The purchase price of SFH seem to be a lot lower in San Antonion than they are in the Triangle area. I think it would be worth exploring that market as your money likely can go further. The Triangle is a great area bu tin high demand with a lot of people relocating here so you'll have a lot of competition with home owners and investors alike. Just another perspective :)


Alyson you are absolutely correct and I agree with you :)

Hey Deepak that's a great area to invest. Should get rented pretty quickly unless your priced too high.

Speak with more lenders, doesn't have to be DSCR or private.

Tough one to answer without doing a deep dive. For me, I'd try to find a market that you can find a move-in ready home with potential to appreciate and cashflow. And if you have the budget for it, I recommend furnishing the rental because it will increase the income you can make on it. And I only say move-in ready because it reduces the risk of issues with contractors, repair costs, etc.

It's important to understand that you won't be able to do everything perfectly from the start and you won't get rich quickly. For me, there were many lessons learned that helped me along the way which also helped me build systems to help them run smoother. If you want to run an STR and continue to buy, just expect some bumps and bruises. Just part of the journey.
