I'm looking at investing in several out-of-state markets (potential BRRRR strategy in mind), I have a list of qualifiers that I'm sussing out to determine viable markets but would love to know: what data helps in determining a good market to invest?

Have you used the strategy?

However, unless you're doing this as part of a BRRRR strategy, you may end up paying closing costs twice and incurring unnecessary interest on the HELOC prior to refinancing.Additionally, conventional loans often have seasoning requirements of 6-12 months, while DSCR loans typically require only 3-6 months.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

I’m a broker based in Charlotte, NC, and I work with Compass to support investors in maximizing their growth strategies.

What would you the pros and cons are of the different hosting account strategies? 

Are there any strategies you’ve used to stand out in the market?

What other kinds of loans or financing strategies are available that don't involve using too much of your own cash?

Hi @Ramsey Doumani,Your strategy is more than possible, self management with the team you already have in place should be a breeze.
