I have been diligently reading, studying, and beginning to practice analyzing cash flows of properties within Chicago and some Chi suburban areas.While I try to use whatever tools I have at my disposal and also be conservative with my numbers while analyzing properties (vacancy percentage, expenses, etc) I believe that in some areas of my analyses, I may not be getting the most accurate information.For everyone out there, where do you get your rental estimates by location?

My attorney charged a significantly lower settlement fee but if I didn't use Lennar Title, then I'd forfeit my incentives... a practice I despise among builder's lenders, but this is how they trap you into using their AfBAs.

Implement sustainable practices, such as Leave No Trace principles, to minimize your ecological footprint and preserve the natural beauty of the area.By carefully considering these factors and doing thorough research, you can determine whether renting out camping areas on your land is a viable option and how to proceed effectively.

(Search for the Due on Sale clause in a mortgage and you'll see plenty of threads and opinions on that but it is very common practice).I would focus 99% of your time on finding the right area and property, as well as team - agent, Property Manager (@Stephen Glover is a very good start on this one btw), banker, Contractor, etc.

I am currently looking for an internship to gain practical experience in managing STRs.

If the dog is doing well, leave it alone.I will recommend you change your practice.

An investor friendly agent can do all sorts of helpful things, like setting you up with a search for properties or connecting you with folks who have recently done deals like the ones you want to do. 6) Consider analyzing a deal or two in your local market, just for practice, with a free use of our Rental Property Calculator (or other calculators).

I have some practice in finding deals but until now I have not had the confidence in myself to execute.
