But really you’re just creating a second job for yourself and one that doesn’t pay very well if it even is cash flow positive at all 😆I used to buy houses for STR but now that I’ve got several STRs up and running that I bought many years ago, I stopped buying STR once mortgage rates went up and housing prices went up.

She sent me a letter from Commercial Property Advisors, Peter Harris, which stated she had approval for funds sufficient to cover the purchase price and below it listed a Wells Fargo business account showing funds in excess of the purchase price.

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

I picked up a home for $422k that does $8k+month in revenue, some months well over.

I would want too as well.

The borrower's financials play a big part as well.

You send me your contract, entity docs, id, I'd need your social, your phone number as well. 

I was thinking of starting a rent increase for my 1 bedroom tenant voucher due it being low and well under fair market value(Based on  hud and zip code) but my tenant is in the process of having a caretaker for her disability and getting approved for a two bedroom voucher.
