I prefer buy and hold.

The area’s limited number of apartment buildings means that many renters prefer single-family properties, creating steady demand for these homes.Happy to chat further if needed.

I own a single-family home right outside the USMC Camp Pendleton base, and I’m looking to explore the mid-term rental niche.

This consist of having a good agent preferably one that works with and has investor experience.

@Michael Almand, for a full line-by-line breakdown and scope of work, my preferred contractor will charge about $250 to walk the property but will credit it back if he and his team are given the job.

Most institutional DSCR lenders prefer one lease per property/unit, however, I've seen programs allowing rent by room strategies.

Before you move out in two years, see what niche of tenants you like, and see if you can market accordingly.

Market isn't that important, but I prefer southern states.

Preferably stay for one year and find another house.
