My other recommendation is once you decide in a budget and a couple criteria get a really good realtor.

So I am not tied to a specific area.

Also, consider creating a JV agreement for the specific opportunity you and your new found partner decide to pursue!

Have some real estate under my belt but looking into Short term rentals opposed to long term rentals.Wondering if there is a stand out book to read to gain understanding for Australian Short Term rental market/AIRBNB.Also if there is a specific group for Australians and short term rentals for Australian market/Australian tax system etc, do point me to that.Rod

@Jefferey EutsayIs there a specific aspect of this deal that you are hoping to get advice on?

anything more specific?

@Drew SygitYeah, specifically in my case I probably wouldn't have even looked into real estate as an option right now if 50/50ing costs/work never came up.

I'd like to not "find out the hard way" if one of these sites are not a good match for me.The ones I'm considering are Propstream, Property Radar, ListSource, and PropwireSomething to note, I am looking to return to doing some wholesale deals, using criteria such as absentee owner, out of state owner, tax delinquent, vacant, liens, and pre-foreclosure..

.), you must research the local laws and regulations, which are State specific.

Are there specific military programs or contacts I should look into for housing opportunities?
