Really hard to hit ratios in places like Illinois where the property taxes are silly.I'm using them for all my holds in eastern tennessee when I finish construction of a rental cabin i'm going to hold. 

I have been working since I was 15 , I’m now in construction only because I just don’t know exactly what I should be doing.

With construction costs today, and rental rates in the neighborhoods where most of the properties are location, you usually can't make the numbers work.

My A class that I own I self manage I have a RE agent that puts them up they find a tenant I require 700 plus fico so that weeds out 90% of renters and then I set them up on auto pay and if they have an issue we send handyman.. to be fair my units are basically new construction and townhouses in HOA's in the Desert ( vegas) so there simply is not a lot of maintenance. there is A class in every city its just that investors get so focused on  positive cash flow they dont buy those for rental purposes so they miss out on the best rental tenants.. the higher the cash flow on paper the lower the quality of the units.. its a fact..

Quote from @Zachary Cain Humphrey: I believe one of the best methods to create wealth right now via STR is to buy land and build new construction.

How do you think this will effect rental rates , home sales ,  construction costs , and insurance costs in Florida and up and down the coast  ?   

Quote from @Nicholas Jacob Nowosielski: Hi all, Can anyone recommend a good, and thorough inspector that can walk a few properties for me and make a list of things that need to be done before I call out the section 8 inspector to come out? 

A key note is that I am a framer for new construction and also have all the subcontractors.

I was running construction and development for a company that owned a massive piece of land they had developed over the decades.

Does the realtor have a good team behind them (lender, home inspector, contractors)?
