@David Flores please look up STR in NYC before diving into this. This is rule #1. A quick google search and you will find NYC has one of the strictest rules against STR.

@Daniel Leathers definitely don’t rely on Zillow and etc. I have a duplex in Mid City/West Adams area. Zillow values it at 835k. We just got appraised for 1.1 million. If you need a good handyman, just DM me. We have one we who is very dependable.

I also think of property locations and property conditions having different classifications. In some older neighborhoods especially historic districts, the tenants look for older houses - they preferred the art deco bathroom tiles, the thick plaster & lath walls over granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.

but class D neighborhoods are easiest to tell. If you enter a neighborhood and you immediately lock all doors from the inside, and check to make sure your gun is loaded, you are in class D no doubt.

On the other hand, most class A+ neighborhoods as you drive through you cannot see the houses from the street. The house is set way back at the end of a long winding driveway, the front is fully fenced for maximum privacy. Occasionally through binoculars you may catch a glimpse of someone sitting on a porch, sipping a glass of mint julep, holding the glass with a white gloved hand with the pinky finger sticking up.

Pinky Finger is the dead giveaway of a Class A+ neighborhood! lol

@Darin Bowers I second ceramic tile. We have them in our personal home with two young boys and our rentals. Looks great and very durable.

In this scenario I am no longer with my w2 job but have passive and semi passive investments. My family have the freedom to take an overseas trip once a year, visit family, donate and kids school fund is funded. This number for me is 25k per month.
