Look at comparable sales within the last 3-6 months, using properties similar in location, size, and renovation level.

The thing that would deter me from this location is a background rate of appreciation of 3.12% and low school ratings.

If Airbnb is your best option, choose a location with high occupancy rates and optimize pricing with dynamic tools like PriceLabs.

It is located in some of the newest developments on the north side of Katy, TX 77493 (I am not sure if I can post a link to the Zillow page or provide the address because I don't own it yet).

It is in good condition and centrally located to shopping and the base so I'm surprise that it has been sitting this long. 

I plan to use it as a rental property, but I'm concerned about the location—Bullhead City, Arizona.

In davidson county most people book an STR to be close to downtown or at least close to somewhere cool as a secondary priority (like 5 points or 12 south for example).If you have an STR in white house it's going to need to make up for location.

If you stay in Northern Minnesota you could look to locate closer to Duluth which has a large supply of duplexes at prices much below $500K.

There are several solid locations inside the loop but it can be a little more street by street though, I'd definitely recommend talking to a local realtor if this was an area you were looking to explore in.

However, because I am unable to make trips to scout locations or look at homes in person.
