It’s growing steadily and has a mix of properties that fit well into a BRRRR strategy.

This area has a unique mix of affordability, beauty, and rental potential that makes it a standout choice for real estate investment.

There are a few things being mixed up here. 

Purchased for $139,999 using a mix of cash and hard money, we revamped it with modern updates, including a new kitchen, flooring, and fresh paint.The property rented for three years, generating steady cash flow of $450/month.

Since you’re planning a mix of long-term and short-term rentals, keeping detailed records and setting up a solid system for managing finances early on will be key.

Really about growing a strong portfolio of solid deals.Now that being said, if you are a high income earner, well qualified, and can't find reasonably good deals: (i) you can connect with a well connected real estate agent for off-market deals; (ii) you might do a very narrow cost-effective cold call or letter writing.

There's no one size fits all of course, but generally the STR/MTR/LTR mix in a multi-family unit can be challenging because the way renters utilize these properties is so different.

Then I consider letters of reference, cosigners, and added security deposit in order to meet approval. 

Friendship and business don’t always mix well, so it’s critical to use a solid lease and treat this as a business arrangement.
