No state income tax.3. property tax's some of the lowest in the country.4. quality of construction most homes are built with stucco and tile roofs and desert landscape compared to much of the mid west rust belt were its very common to be looking at houses that are 50 to 100 plus years old. and yards grow fast  snow sleet ice all take more wear and tear on your units.we do a lot in most of the mid west rust belt states. the prime motivation is price point and rent to price ratio for those aspects they are the best.

If my business had that money laying around, I wouldn’t need a loan?

The first house that I bought was 17 years old, 3 br, 1.5 bath, brick ranch house with hardwood floors, Andersen windows, ceramic tile baths, gas heat and a brand new roof.

@Kin Lay To transfer your share of the house to your brother, you can use a quitclaim or grant deed, but there are tax implications.

Currently there is that extremely thin, hard, cheap landlord carpeting (and also an area with cheap thin stick on hard tile squares). 

If it's just a place to lay the head in whatever random place, probably not all that much value to it, right. 

You’ll also want to have them sign a rental agreement that lays out your rules, payment terms, and any liability.
