This plays into the affordability issues for tenants by allowing them to live in nicer neighborhoods for less money, yet I get monthly revenue comparable to short-term rentals.I have also shifted my focus to buying better.

My focus is on uncovering properties priced under $800K with the potential to gross six figures annually.

From what I’ve heard in a piece by Forbes, focusing on unique features can lead to higher long-term rental satisfaction... especially if your tenants want a few animals or more outdoor space.

I'd suggest the path of being a HML (Hard Money Lender), focusing on JV's. 

Combining short term rentals and a venue is a huge advantage because guests would not have to travel far and you could offer better rates as part of a event package.My current venue focuses more on baby showers, content creation and birthday celebrations rentals.

I mainly focus on do ing flips and flip to rent, but I also facilitate STR and MTR in the area too.

Hey Cyprien, I'm a realtor in the Richmond Area and focus on helping others with investment properties as well as buying for myself.

Focus on tenant screening, building a local team, and learning as much as you can, starting early sets you up for long-term success!

@Kyle Carter just because a building has all section 8 tenants doesn’t necessarily mean that the cap rate will be higher on exit but it might attract a buyer(s) that are focused cashflow and not appreciation; therefore a lower price to juice the yield.One of my non negotiables if I were you would be to only buy in an area that is desirable.  

I would also focus on smaller deals, single family to 4 unit starting out, so you can establish some experience.
