If you decide to revisit STRs, you might want to explore properties where you can project expenses independently, such as using local STR forums or online tools to estimate maintenance, management, and occupancy costs.For networking and strategy-building, you might find local meetups or groups beneficial.

Any idea estimate on cost? 

My estimate is 90% of the time we obtain a tenant in our first open house.  

It’s been estimated by one attorney I spoke with that an eviction in Cook County would take about 6 months.

Estimated property amount is $300kWe would love to get $270k out of the property (90% LTV).Thanks for any and all help.

No "estimating" at the end of the week/month/year. 3.

My take on this is to underwrite purchases based on expected LTR rents (I like rentometer and the BP's own rental estimator), but start charging 1.5x that rent for your MTR.

Leverage your construction expertise to accurately estimate rehab costs and streamline renovations, and focus on financing strategies like hard money or private loans for your BRRRR deals.

Estimated cost for remaining changes (all new electric, drywall, tile, fixtures, cabinets, roof, doors, windows, heat pump, some siding, and fencing.

For example "Just get 3 estimates from general contractors.." is a lot easier written than done!!
