Hi Derek,Based out of Surrey, BC and thinking of investing in the states as well.

I'm a licensed Realtor in Northeast Georgia and can shed some light based on my experience.Sponsoring Broker for Part-Time Realtors:Yes, in Georgia, you need to affiliate with a broker to activate your license after passing the licensing exam.

Across the board, the worse the neighborhood, the better the cash flow, the better the neighborhood, the trade off for tenants base, better schools, low crime, etc etc.

We're based in Tampa and, in addition to personally investing, I own a mortgage company that provides financing for tons of investors.

I own a LTR in central Houston that I think would be pretty successful as an STR based on the AirDNA data.

The drop and Swap is about all we use here due to the confiscatory tax rates based on sale price.

Dont know where to start any suggestions will be great thank you For the 300k property they are probably not going to let you pull any money out based on the amount of credit you already owe.

Best of luck 👍🏻 @Justin This is almost perfect advice but you do need 3.5% down with an FHA mortgage.

Was hoping to get at least 115k based off what comps were.

One I know is based in LA as that's a huge market of course..
