@Albert Johnson, fair doesn't matter.

From that information I would think the best you can do is get a range of the ARV (say $150-$170k) and I would make sure you numbers work no matter whether the actual value falls within the range.

As for how they know they’re getting a good deal, some of these sites that allow you to list your tradelines and match you up with renters/borrowers (or however you wanna refer to them) will list out the details of the tradeline that matter such as how long the credit line’s been open, the credit limit, balance on the card and your credit score.

No matter what though always go through a title company if you close.

No matter your capital situation, you can always be investing via this strategy.

I’ve found that as long as they’re somewhat insulated and well installed the color won’t matter.

If it's matter of income, make sure your lenders are including part of the rental income.

Would it matter much if they had paid $11,000 for that house? 

As you may know being local, SB249 is the bill that came up as a defense against towns like North Conway trying to shut down STRs, but it ended up in zombie state due to the sheer nature of diametrically opposed views on the matter and Governor Sununu’s push to do better than what the bill ended up proposing.Some details here: https://legiscan.com/NH/bill/SB249/2022As with all areas in New England I encourage investors to start thinking of oversaturated STRs markets as expense offset versus cash flow properties.

It doesn't matter what your favorite guru is telling you.Vouchers are generally assessed annually and the amounts can, and often change.
