Do you have an overall opinion and an opinion compared to Reno/Vegas?

The property owner's tax professional can help them with that and ensure they don't pay taxes twice on the same income.Disclaimer: My advice/opinion in this post is just that, my opinion.

Metrics like 10-15% of ARV profit, COC, and the 70% rule all serve different purposes, helping you build expectations, safety margins, track leverage, and account for contractor turnaround times.In my opinion rather than overanalyzing numbers upfront, I would focus first on building strong deal flow.

My personal opinion is that, while shifting investments into real estate may be the right move for your situation, there is likely a lot of work to be done before you get to that step to avoid a potentially costly mistake. 

Johann , there're already software like that from 4 years ago LOL ... it has nothing to do with "AI" in my opinion LOL as I can calculate comps in 38 seconds LOL.

You can do better (referencing the latter).Just one opinion.

Always a cheerleader for our local market & think we face many headwind, but this is is massively overblown in my opinion and certainly there is absolutely no data that we have seen an effect from this as of yet, again if anything our suburbs inventory has gotten tighter.

So my opinion for short term rentals is, if you don't have the time to manage yourself, then just buy it if you want to visit there a lot.Another option might be to find a successful operating partner.

Quote from @Brandon Weis: In your opinion, as you are starting out at 0 reviews, do you think it is a must to beat the competition on price to overcome customer's hesitancy or lack of trust with no reviews?

Now we're seeing investors pouring money into buying Class C rentals - but, many are getting burned.In our experience & opinion, the main determinant of property Class is not location or even property condition, those are #2 and #3.
