Hey guys, my family has done a couple rentals in the Birmingham area and want to know what are the good areas that have worked for yall! 

Quote from @Joel Oh: Hi guys, I know I will get a lot of hates from this but does STRs insurance really good as their price?

You can match the investment more to your specific goals/risk tolerance: i.e. nice property, with long-term fixed debt, or sketchy property with lots of upside, single family, 2-4 unit, etc.  

Install landscaping that super low maintenance and reduces water usage and looks nice.

Purchase price: $390,000 Cash invested: $390,000 Brand new construction nestled in the Grovemont neighborhood and conveniently located just 15 min from downtown Asheville & 10 min from Black Mountain. 3BR, 2.5 Bath, front and back deck, nice natural light.

MHPark residents- your park owner is just a guy running a business, no he doesn't have the bandwidth to deal with each resident personally, that's why he hired a management company.

I'm going to have a floor guy take a look to be sure, but let's assume I can't re-sand and I'll either have to put new flooring over the old original floors or just tell the next prospective tenant, that's how the floors will be, which lowers the appeal of a very rentable apartment.   

We live well, have a nice house which I built from the ground up and saved 200k off the top.
