I also wholesaled previously in Baltimore and had a Carrot site in 2014-2016 range before we launched InvestorFuse (We ran PPC traffic to it using AdWords Nerds at the time while working on SEO.)I wanted to shoot over a few bullet points of data from a recent Performance Report and some feedback from a Product Analyst on our team.

pid=2114Houston Real Estate Highlights in August, 2024:• Single-family home sales declined 8.3 percent year-over-year• Days on Market (DOM) for single-family homes went from 43 to 47 days• Total property sales were down 11.2 percent with 8,730 units sold• Total dollar volume declined 8.8 percent to $3.5 billion• The single-family median price was down 0.3 percent to $336,940• The single-family average price rose 0.9 percent to $421,912• Single-family home months of inventory registered a 4.5-months supply, up from 3.2 months last August• Townhome/condominium sales continued to decline, falling 16.7 percent, with the median price statistically flat at $226,000 and the average price declined 1.2 percent to $258,952.

It’s also worth checking if there are any incentives, especially for first-time investors or through FHA (if house hacking).Final Thoughts:A 5% COC return isn’t the highest, but if you see potential for appreciation, rent growth, and forced value through renovations, this could be a good deal to launch your investing career.

Welcome to BiggerPockets, and congratulations on launching your first STR!

Florida condominium associations are currently navigating significant challenges due to recent legislative changes and rising insurance costs.

If you treat it like a business that you are running, you can make outsized returns, but the same can be said about launching your own real estate brokerage and building that business, or launching a tech company, etc.  

I wanted to share some exciting news here at BiggerPockets as we have launched a new downloadable spreadsheet for analyzing short-term rental deals.Once you pull in some numbers from a STR data source like AirDNA, Rabbu, Mashvisor, etc., you should be able to see if a deal pencils out for you.

I am all ears if anyone has any wisdom to impart to a newbie.So, I recently launched an LLC and I am working on getting it certified as a Woman Owned business; not sure if that will help in any way, but I figure it can't hurt.

We launched our CRM InvestorFuse in 2016 the original version being on Podio (A Turnkey CRM for wholesalers/investors doing their own direct-to-seller marketing). 

We’ve recently launched a new funding program with preferred terms and would love to discuss how it could benefit you.
