What is most popular in your market?

We've got one right now on Chatham that's under contract on which our client should do pretty well.The $150k-$225k is popular, but sourcing due to competition is the challenge.

Given need to (potentially) seek outside investment from family for conventional.I’ve heard FHA is tough in these popular areas due to more stringent inspections, longer time to close, and perceived higher risk of riskier buyer and deal falling through.

I imagine it's similar to St Louis but I'd be willing to bet it has more going for it and better appreciation.Happy to share some resources, learnings, and even history/performance of my rentals I've had for 5+ years.

Our beaches will always draw plenty of visitors in my opinion and are a safer bet because of limited land and fewer properties available to convert to STR. 

Plumbing all that to the house is a couple grand more before rough-in.My property is in a very rural area right next to a popular ski resort plus it is elevated on a ridgeline.

I would hedge your bet.

It is still possible to get homes without coming out of pocket a lot of money and the most popular method for this currently is the BRRRR method.Well, in theory this would work but this is almost impossible to do in this current market.  

I'm betting there wasn't any medical issue at all - they thought they'd go somewhere cheaper, and now they find out there's nothing cheaper.

Sometimes the suburbs are even better than the main areas, especially if they are close enough to the popular areas.
