That being said, there’s nothing wrong with investing in blue collar areas but I prefer to invest in the ones that have a higher degree of owner occupancy because the residents of those areas care about where they live and have deeper roots.  

Is the backup to use it as an STR during these months?

I'd estimate that there are less than 1,000 legitimate, or "professional" wholesalers, in the United States of America, as defined by individuals who make $100K flipping contracts, and collecting assignment fees, in any form, and who have made that amount of income more than 3 years in a row.

With time and persistence, it can provide the kind of financial freedom many people only dream of.

As stated earlier, no chance 1M is going to move a 500B market.What I didn’t see stated here was the fact that Craigslist now gives people posting the option to take cryptocurrency as a form of payment.

They are sure to move on at the end of their lease term. 

I'm particularly liking the idea of a dulplex, and "House Hacking". 

(As AZ and your current state will fight over who gets to tax your gains with the federal government.)I have to throw most of the shade on your horrible tax guy/cpa who didn’t tell you renting it out was a $50-$100k mistake. 

recovering this negative position can consume years of the actual cash flow when using realistic expense estimates.  

We're getting nailed in auto insurance too.Any ideas why these states?
