@John Salcedo you may already know some of this, but a reminder doesn't hurt:)Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.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.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

Have you looked at AirDna or another STR data tool to obtain expected ADR?

That means reading as many real estate books as you can, listen to an endless amount of podcasts, attend as many meetups you can, and try to find a mentor by finding someone doing what you want to do at a large scale and provide them value (expecting nothing in return).

You will expect the GC to do all of this for you, and for free at that.

You’ll want to consider the purchase price, HOA fees, taxes, insurance, and the rental income you can realistically expect.
