This dynamic will continue to drive up both prices and rents for the foreseeable future.

Tasha,Congrats on the success so far and even though there is a $100 cost in AZ its not that far of a drive to Las Vegas or to NV in general.

I have way too many tools/supplies for an apartment and a very high drive German Shepherd.

Go look around for some small section 8 apartments listed for sell or rent, then go drive by, and let us know what you think!

We found our forever home in the neighborhood we wanted by driving the entire neighborhood, adding the properties using DealMachine, and then sent them all handwritten greeting card letters stating that we're a new family looking to move into the neighborhood and if they had any interest in selling to please call us. 

Some mentees will act as a bloodhound for the mentor, knocking on doors, driving for dollars, scouring the internet, making cold calls, or performing other services that help the mentor find new deals.

Once you have a shortlist, sign up for an account with each one and test them extensively to see how they function.

Communication is SEVERELY lacking from all the agents involved plus the brokerage.Finally, I just drive to the sellers house in person and knock on the door.

If you can't determine an area class by driving there and looking at it, then you need to get some more exposure and get to know the local market more. 

I also leverage a tool called Intellihost which helps with pricing strategy and conduct A/B Testing with listing changes.The listing description seems to be just a paragraph.
