As you become more familiar with neighborhood values and property conditions, estimating ARV becomes easier over time.

Should I wait until I’ve purchased the property, or start once I’ve decided on the target market and city?

It has a slightly more vacation-friendly vibe with its arts scene, annual events, and outdoor activities that draw visitors regularly.Since you're targeting STR occupancy over 50% without extreme seasonal dips, you might consider neighborhoods near popular attractions, like Tulsa’s Downtown Arts District or the lake areas nearby, which offer steady, diverse visitor interest.

Ask people to connect, and they will... then its easier to just run something by them every once in a while.

Hi Kris,Unless the sellers are really cooperative, it honestly sounds easier to just do a normal offer and flip/BRRRR using cash or hard money.

Overall it is easy to learn and has made my messaging guests much much easier. 

Target "built as" mulit family.

@Teahjsia Frazier - If you're targeting a BRRRR for your next deal I would consider using a combination of your money, private money (friends and family), as well as hard money for the purchase and rehab.

It is much easier to see if it is drawn out.

I would presume including an amenity in your title that is rare would be far easier to rank for.
