In a highly competitive tourist market like New Orleans, I update my photos weekly. 

This will make it a lot easier to manage, will cost you less than buying on the market and typically you can get 1:1 rent returns.

Personally, I invest in properties in C-Class neighborhoods in my market (East Linden and Southern Hilltop), and they’ve been cash-flowing well so far.

Multifamily is not as volatile as single family because when the real estate markets experience any type of correction, people flee to multifamily residences.

I do however keep my a little below market value so I get a bigger tenant pool.

What makes something a "deal" today is not yester-markets.

Plus, you already know the market, which gives you an edge.

Thank you Lauren,  Yes, Pad split is already in this market so I think Im good.   

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

Brian,Because VT is a traditional rental market (ski houses), depending on the minimum duration you will be allowing for rentals (ie. monthly, Weekly, etc.) there are some regular carriers in the New England Market that will write it.
