I began flipping houses in 2022 and left my 9-to-5 job last year to pursue real estate full time. 

This seller is an older guy that bought this deal for his son and his son up and left a few years into it.

Well....should you invest in a city where the people elected a woman with foreclosures, liens, judgements, garnishments, ethical violations from the state ethics board,  misused a city credit card, went three years arrears on her federal taxes all while yelling for other people to pay "  their fair share, " left skeletonized dead bodies hanging over Canal St for months on end covered only by a tarp until the wind blew it off to reveal to our horror her blatant disrespect for human dignity?

Dewald: Some other good zips are 63074, 63042, 63044 - great for long term rentals.There are good areas in south city left as well :-)I see more and more issues with municipalities like Berkeley, Pagedale where they want to narrow down the amount of rentals within a neighborhood and require homeowners to occupy and won't give out occupancy for rentals.Let me know if you've got any questions. 

If that is what you are talking about, you are probably getting WAY off in left field.

A bootcamp is how we came into the mix.I'm also a real estate agent, and investor that left their W2 in March to pursue real estate ventures full time.  

I am using HML now but it is hard to do a Full BRRRR because at least with the last one I still left $14,000 into the property plus since I tried selling first I had $10,000 in holding costs over the 6 months it took in rehab and 3 months of it sitting unsold on the market until I decided to rent it.

I’d love to hear from those with more experience to see if my observations align with yours and if there are tips for managing costs or maximizing the benefits of mid-term rentals. 

Delve into market trends, neighborhoods, and property types that align with your goals.

This can be a compromise if not aligned with long-term vision.
