I own a LTR in central Houston that I think would be pretty successful as an STR based on the AirDNA data.

If you do decide on MN, did a similar analysis as you a few months back in St Paul with rent-to-price ratios based on median price and median rents for each neighborhood in St Paul.

I understand why carriers associate Condo/PUD construction with greater liability risk (I am sure being based in Philadelphia, a jury friendly city doesn't help either) but curious which carriers others are finding to price coverage without this exclusion and also price the coverage competitively.This also serves as a reminder to review the coverage when you hire a GC for more substantial or unique construction assignments. 

I'm California-based where there aren't any real deals in my area, so I'm exploring Detroit as an alternative real estate investment market - due to the combination of it being a strong market and my having connections in the area. 

Based on my current savings rate, it would take me about 3-4 years to save up enough for the down payment on my first investment property.

Since you are based in California, do you know of any good CPAs who are geared towards real estate investors ?

I'm based in Powder Springs, Ga.I've always heard about real estate passively but it always went over my head and seemed beyond my reach. 

Nightly rates and estimated revenue based on all the other units in the area?

On a commercial asset the value is directly based on the NOI (net operating income).

My passion lies in expanding my portfolio of long-term rentals and diving into property flipping as I grow in this journey.My main goals are to connect with like-minded investors and professionals, share experiences, and soak up as much knowledge as I can from this incredible community.If you’re based in Georgia or working on similar projects, I’d love to connect and hear about your journey!
