@Bradley MairThe strategy involves buying properties as primary residences, resulting in lower down payments and better cash flow.

Hey guys, late to the party, but I'm heavily involved in investment real estate as a Broker Associate and investor in Fredericksburg, TX as well as our second home in Natchez, MS.

I'm heavily involved in the co-living side of things in the Atlanta market and work a ton with Padsplit.Off the top, nice family oriented neighborhoods are typically a no-go for rent by the room and even more of a no-go if it's in an HOA.Please feel free to shoot me the property address in the DMs and would be happy to provide some feedback!

Here's what I’m considering for each:Houston: Diverse job market and high rental demand, but property prices are rising.Midland: Potentially lower property prices, but market stability often ties to the oil industry.Oklahoma City: Affordable market with decent rental demand, but I’m curious about long-term growth potential.Pittsburgh: Growing rental demand, especially in areas like Mt.

If they don't, consider involving an attorney.

Since there’s no recorded lien and they weren’t involved during the foreclosure, it sounds like they’re pushing boundaries by attempting to enforce something without proper documentation.

I’d love to have real estate provide some financial freedom/flexibility and create a portfolio that I could eventually get my kids involved with and pass down to them, but I end up feeling frozen/stuck based on the factors above. 

The BRRRR strategy and tax lien investing are both great approaches, especially when you’re getting started and want to maximize your investments.I’m involved in the investment real estate space as well, primarily focusing on new construction duplexes in downtown Indianapolis.

@Zach RumfieldEstimating an ARV involves using public sales data, subscription services, local tax assessor's website, real estate agents, CMA tools, and local appraisers.

It has a slightly more vacation-friendly vibe with its arts scene, annual events, and outdoor activities that draw visitors regularly.Since you're targeting STR occupancy over 50% without extreme seasonal dips, you might consider neighborhoods near popular attractions, like Tulsa’s Downtown Arts District or the lake areas nearby, which offer steady, diverse visitor interest.
