Start by asking for recommendations from local real estate groups, Facebook community pages, or other landlords in the area—they’re often the best source.What do you think about getting a good referral from a good property manager?

I highly recommend finding a broker and have them find a policy that meets your specific requirements.

There’s just not enough ADU supply (IN MY AREA) for appraisers to base off of.

Ian - do you have any recommendations for a good securities law attorney? 

Properties are sitting on market for a bit longer now that supply is slowly creeping back up. 50 days isn't too terrible compared to the greater PHX area. 

@Raiyan KhanYou can search these forums for vendor recommendations but you can also join a real estate investment club in the area you want to invest and get the same info.

While the 6% property tax can seem high, I’d recommend looking at the full picture.

Who do you recommend?"

Below is some copy & paste info about our methodology:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?
