Purchase price: $110,000 Cash invested: $35,000 UNDER CONTRACT - 1st True Blue Investment PropertyTenant occupied duplex with each unit currently renting for $650/mo.

The 3 unit cash flows $675 a month and is on town water and sewer but is in a less desirable neighborhood that is blue collar with much less chance of appreciation.

Very desirable, but largely already mostly discovered, would be hard to find a deal.Park Slope- Probably the most blue chip neighborhood in Brooklyn, incredibly stable, will most likely continue to appreciate at a modest rate. 

I paid about 5k to replaster with a quartz chip product and retile the perimeter with blue pool tile a few years back.

Use the @ sign and start typing their name. on a computer their name will appear and you click on it and it populates the comment box in blue and then they are notified. 

Here is our plan as of now - invest in a short-term rental by Summer of 2022 in / near the mountains (we live in Charlotte, so we are leaning towards Lake Lure area or Blue Ridge areas if possible).

The area is not high crime - it is a rural blue collar town that has a good industrial park for people to work.  

The way I've narrowed it down is by:Gathering data from all 50 states (population growth, median income, crime, price-to-rent, etc.)Filter out states that have rent lawsFilter out blue states (not because of political beliefs but from my understanding they have less rules and regulation and I believe that in the current climate we're in with COVID and all people are going to flock to areas that don't have as much regulation)Highlight states that people retire in more than othersBecause of short-term rental becoming a trending way to invest, filter out states that impose regulation/rules against short-term rentals using platforms like Air BNB, etc.Also, using ZILLOW, I type in my parameters (homes under $125,000, sqft.

Use a color coded sticker system to help tell which room gets which box (red stickers for your room, blue for boys, yellow for kitchen, you get the idea).
