Eventually I went to investment property (local purchase) and vacation home (2 out of state purchases).

Want to acquire a self-car wash within Dallas Texas area. Was wondering if anyone knows a guy/girl that can't help me acquire sed property off market for a better price. Any information would be appreciated.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

Purchase price: $530,000 Cash invested: $100,000 My journey into short-term rentals began after years of investing in long-term properties, but it was a podcast that opened my eyes to the incredible potential returns of STRs.

Quote from @Jeffrey Bourque: ARV $350,000 - $400,000 3bd 1 bath 800sqft estimate rehab $70,000 purchase price $200,000What are your thoughts and should I do it? 

I have purchased many properties without a tenant in place.

There are really great REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are particularly lucrative - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

My question is do I go forward with purchasing the property and deal with the higher insurance and potential hazard or is it smarter to walk away?

@James Boreno You’ll likely owe taxes, but don’t forget to account for your adjusted cost basis, which factors in the original purchase price, depreciation over 10 years, and any capital improvements.
