@Shane Swart from a PMC point of view, @Bonnie Low is pretty accurate.We do LTR and MTR, but the MTR is at a higher rate due to the extra time involved in managing furnishings. 

Quote from @Bonnie Low: California is just too large and too diverse to be talked about as a single market.

@Ross Ellington There will be a VA funding fee.

However, I did a search on BP for members in KC with multifamily and here are some of the names that appeared:@Charles Thomas@Jason Ross@Justin Cooke@John WiresI also found a Facebook group that is for BP members in the KC area:https://www.facebook.com/groups/BiggerPocketsKC/NOTE: I think if you become a Pro Member with BP you will have great access to finding people in your market.

Thank you Share Ross I'll definitely look into it

Quote from @Bonnie Low: Quote from @Greg Bensley: The average rental rate in Raleigh is well below the average purchase price.

If you're looking to buy, renovate, rent, and refinance then I would suggest areas like Carnegie, Shaler, Ross twp, and O'Hara Twp.

Or if you don't want to get sales training selling cars.. go work at a time share operation or in my day  a Land sales organization ALA  Glenn Garry Glenn Ross that's how you learn to actually sell real estate ... you have to have sales chops to be a top producer.. in MOST instances or niches of the market.

@Bonnie Low Hi Bonnie, thank you so much for the reply.

#MTR #STR #FLEASI'd second Bonnie's advice.
