Recently there have been some issues with drunk driving (primarily on The Strip). 

I would not expect that demand to drive up the price in a crazy way but let's say there's some $700,000 4-unit properties in some markets that are sitting for a long time - those will sell faster. 

I even went out to Memphis last year to drive by my properties and meet with MidSouth. 

Partner Driven was interested in the Finsbury Drive deal in Spring Hill, FL, due to its high profit potential.

If rates did drop, that 3 year fixed period means their rate would automatically drop with it, so they wouldn't have to refinance if they didn't want to, but if they did want to (cash out refi made possible by a recession forcing more elderly people into assisted living facilities, thus driving up rents, and the value of assisted living facilities? 

I recommend investing to start in places you can get to an home in a day whether that is a flight or drive. 

Luckily its only a mile away and a short drive with no street lights or traffic. 

we currently live in long island, and was thinking of upstate NY, as that would be a drive away, if we ever decide to convert the STR to our vacation home.

Just prepared to run those numbers with their buyer commission, as that will be changing.Third, the property manager should be the driving force behind how and where you invest in the long term.

It is a good way to drive 5 star reviews.
