Going live as a STR in 2 weeks Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I’d love to connect with local investors, agents, lenders, and contractors in the Kansas City area.

I own a few and so do agents on our team.

I am a licensed agent in Kansas and Missouri as well as looking for my first investment.

@Juliann Morala Yep, a buyers agent that works exclusively with investors will have all the info you need and lots of options on contractors, lenders, attorneys, inspectors, property managers.

The right agent will provide a pro forma breakdown on every property they look at, have repair costs estimated, CapEx, etc...

Based on what my real estate agent thinks that this quote will be, roughly, and the after repair value, it looks like I could buy this property in cash, spend a month or two fixing the damage, and then put a mortgage for roughly 1.6x what I paid for it and thus have a cash flowing property at a few hundred dollars per month and a little more money in my bank account ready for a down payment on the next deal.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on striking the right balance between being thorough and adhering to fair housing practices.Thanks again for starting this conversation—it’s incredibly valuable to learn from experienced property managers like you!
