Popular markets near us appear to be the hudson valley, adirondacks, finger lakes (although it seems STR's are under fire there), and even the cape cod area as we have vacationed there a lot and know the area fairly well.   

I have done quite a few different things, one of the best to find out who is doing the most volume is go onto good and search for the "we buy houses companies" in the area you are looking to invest.

@Kevin Bartel Yes Aspen is a VHCOL area.

It’s harder to BRRRR in the Tulsa area now due interest rates, you definitely have to buy at a great discount in order to be all in low enough toget all of your money out and the rents have to be high enough to still cash flow after all expenses (PITI, Mgmt, Vac’s, Rep/Maint, CapEx, HOAs, Util).Based on being “all in” $120K in order to BRRRR and still cash flow at least $300 mo:$120K cash out amount - at 7%/30 yr ($150K+ ARV)PI = $800 mo + Taxes $150 + Ins $150 = $1100mo PITIRENT would have to be at least $2000 mo- $1100 PITI- $200 mgmt (even if self mng, it’s exp for time)- $200 vacancies- $200 Rep/Maint & CapEx= $300 mo cash flow.

Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Babies area  gray area. 

@Holly Radice so I own in Barnum but do not do any STR as I don't live in the area.

Thats really low for that area and for that price. 

There are a lot of people who bought during the pandemic that are now trying to get out. 

Cal or Orange County areas .
