"Good" areas will be priced high, "Bad" areas will be priced low. 

@Samuel Coronado, @Elan Adler  Entire subdivisions of build to rent put more pressure on local landlords because the big institutional investors can afford to buy tenants with low rents and free initial rent period.

His IG videos are low-budget and I have seen grade schoolers make better vids. 

This setup alone feels like a solid foundation for financial freedom.Here’s my dilemma:While I understand that my mortgage interest rate is very low (2.8%) and there are tax benefits to carrying the debt, I’m wondering if it might make more sense to aggressively pay off the loan.

Make sure you buy it low enough to make it worth the trouble.

In this type of situation, they want low interest rate with low down payment also.

Property was sitting on market and needed light updates (roof, flooring, paint) but was in a great area that allows STRs giving me multiple options when deciding on rental strategy How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Quote from @Jaycee Greene: Assuming you pay asking price, I'd estimate the down payment for something like that using a hard money loan (HML) would be around 40% of the purchase price and your monthly payment would be $2,600 with an interest rate in the low 7% range (probably need a 700+ credit score to get that).

Ebooks, podcasts like @Bonnie Low suggested and start running numbers on every deal you see until you know how it all works.

I've been reading more about subject to and here's what I've learned:-Good for sellers who are off market-Have low to no equity-Have a mortgage with a low interest rate (less than 5%)-Be absentee or out of state (vacant property, or have a tenant)The buyer would then take over the mortgage payments, and have the seller sign the deed over to the buyer.
