The BP rental estimator tool is pretty good as well and is usually within about a 5-7% margin of error. 

It's a great tool to learn more about real estate though, and help you decide whether or not a full time career in this industry is for you. 

Works really well (I used the CSV option) - but the Stessa import tool does not bring in the GUEST SERVICE FEE from the Airbnb transaction.

Hey STR folks, trying to make a clear comparison of the different STR data sources and curious to hear your thoughts on which STR data tool you find to be most accurate out of AirDNA, Mashvisor, Rabbu, BNB Calc, PriceLabs, STR Insights.

Customer reviews are always helpful, but this is another tool in your belt for vetting companies.

This house is in an area that's eligible for USDA.Brandon Home For Sale Also this is a fun USDA tool for exploring:https://eligibility.sc.egov.usda.gov/eligibility/welcomeActi...hth 

@Chris CoreTo find cash-flowing properties for your first investment, focus on house hacking with an FHA loan, finding properties with rents that cover your mortgage payment, using real estate investment tools like BiggerPockets, and analyzing deals in emerging markets with strong cash flow potential.

Specifically in SC, though, I would check two things - 1) see if the ATI exemption applies and actually quote the taxes for that particular property on the county tax estimator tool, and 2) get a ballpark quote from your insurance partner on the particular property.
