Looking for suggestions on any specific building materials, fixtures, accessories, furniture, and tech for a STR.  

LOL Happy to share any knowledge about that niche, since as you can see, I am kind of the go to for KY and that is all I do.

That being said, if it provides me a significant advantage or a starting point, I think it would be foolish not to utilize it.Therefore, given these two different perspectives/starting points, I'd love to hear any potential advice on which strategies/niches to focus on first, and for which starting point.

Invest with syndicators who have a narrow niche and proven track record.For example, if an operator has done 5 or 6 workforce housing value add deals in Dallas, and they are offering a similar deal now, that would be encouraging.if however, their current deal was a brand new luxury Class A building in Charlotte and this was their first acquisition in Charlotte and their first class A deal, as an LP I would pass.Find operators who do one thing and kill it in that space.Find operators who own or have gone full cycle with similar assets in the same market.For example, my firm, Spark Investment Group has a very narrow niche - sub 100 unit MF or BTR in Greenville SC.

As for offering subject-to financing, this is something that can be advertised under 'seller financing' in our local MLS, and there's investors that search specifically for listings with that marked, so that should introduce your property to a new set of buyers that may not have considered it before.

I have been to the DFW area a few times but not specifically to these northern suburbs, but I know that DFW is one of the fastest growing metro areas in the country with a robust economy, and I expect it to keep growing.

I've been in the niche since 2007 buying homes in parks and out on land moving them into the parks.

I'm paintimg all my doors, cabinets, and baseboards semi-gloss, specifically so I can wipe them down easier.

Good evening BP world,I am looking to make some contacts, specifically RE agents and hands-on investors in the phoenix area, in order to start acquiring some value add SFH investment properties.

I love that you’re already narrowing down specific zip codes and doing your due diligence.I’ve heard good things about 73170 and 73135, especially with the proximity to Tinker Air Force Base, which tends to attract stable tenants.
