I remember when I bought my first investment property..it felt like navigating unchated waters, but it was one of the best decisions I ever made.The BRRRR method is a powerful strategy.

We have our own irrigation system, we also have our own water source which we invested in.

Replacing multiple furnaces, water pipes breaking, noisy tenant I had to evict, etc etc.

I still cannot rent this property without essentials like water/power despite the repairs.  

We added a yard game area/hot tub/pool/etc.

A home sitting for months might be because it was listed during a slower rental season.Marketing and Property Management: Some landlords don’t market their properties well, or they might have strict tenant requirements that reduce the pool of potential renters.3.

Regular inspections for any signs of wear, cracks, or water damage are advisable to maintain the facade's integrity.Parking and Access: The covered parking area is a significant advantage for tenants, but ensures the area is well-lit and secure to prevent any potential safety issues.Interior Features:Layout: The open floor plan with large windows ensures ample natural light, which is appealing to tenants.

This property in particular had some additional unforeseen costs (main water line damage, sewer line damage, etc.) that certainly caused us to go way over budget.

If you don't have a lot of outdoor possible trouble spots like decks, pools, hot tubs etc.

Cutting back vegetation etc.The home probably got more deferred maintenance, water damage evident even in this video.
