Hi Beth, Your best bet is finding a DSCR based lender that has looser guidelines on STRs.

Over time, a good bet would be to save up enough to find a two-family to house hack with lower money down and move there and rent out this one you own outright which would cash flow nicely. 2-1 single-families can be great for mid-term rentals as well which can 1.4-2.5 your cash flow.

Not quite as big and doesn't have the outlets, but it does have Loon which is arguably the premier mountain in NH and some very popular hiking trails. 

Hi Tanjaree, here is what I found for the Waco metro area:Here are my rankings for zip codes in the metro area from best to worst-1.76706 (Waco) 2.76638 (Crawford) 3.76710 (Waco) 4.76630 (Bruceville) 5.76704 (Waco) 6.76640 (Elm Mott) 7.76708 (Waco) 8.76633 (China Spring) 9.76712 (Woodway) 10.76657 (McGregor) 11.76701 (Waco) 12.76691 (West) 13.76705 (Waco) 14.76655 (Lorena) 15.76643 (Hewitt) 16.76707 (Waco) 17.76711 (Waco) 18.76557 (Moody) 19.76682 (Riesel) 20.76524 (Eddy) 21.76624 (Axtell) 22.76664 (Mart) 23.76654 (Leroy)The Waco Metro also rates slightly above average compared to the rest of the state, making it a fairly safe bet as far as Texas goes. 

Crowley also looks to be growing and coming into it's own as well the past couple years, though not at the same level of some other popular suburbs in the metroplex.

Concerts, professional sports, popular bachelor/bachelorette destination - all reasons to spend extra money on a unique experience with Airbnb :) Other major events happening more frequently in Nashville nowadays - Presidential debate, IndyCar race August 2021, Largest turnout for NFL draft in history in 2019.

And lastly College towns are an easy bet since there are three large colleges in the Three biggest cites in CO!

When buying your first rental property, or any, you probably should not bet on rents going up 4% per year.
