So now I have both my personal residence and a leased property as STRs.Even though I live 3 hours away from my leased STR property, I've built a team that assists with managing it, so I don't have to be there all the time.Here are some key things I've learned:Regulations: Research the specific STR regulations in the state and city where you're looking to buy.

The type of home you buy determines the tenant you get.

We were there looking for another property that we could buy together on the beach that we could rent out as a short-term vacation rental.We we're living it up and having a fantastic time zip lining, eating delicious food, and seeing the monkeys in the wild.it seems like from the moment I returned from that trip in August 2022 the real estate market completely changed.

Quote from @Andrew White: Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment in San Antonio.

@Kyle LipkoRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Now that house has been rented out for the past two years, and I want to buy another possible duplex or triplex to house hack.

Many people don't buy because they are concerned about this and that.

•Be cautious about buying “as-is” or waiving inspections just to get a lower price.

@Benjamin Seibert were you looking to flip or buy and hold?
