G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

As you embark on this adventure, it's important to equip yourself with knowledge and a solid strategy.

A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Post back if you find another lender who serves you well, and I will add them to my list and pay it forward.Ridge Lending All in One, first position HELOCAmericafirst 80% LTV on noo 65% LTV UtahArvest Bank AR, OK, AL, MO Bank of the west BB&T will loan on a rental portfolioBBVA Compass Boeing employee credit union California: Cal Coast Credit Union and Fremont Bank.

But really you’re just creating a second job for yourself and one that doesn’t pay very well if it even is cash flow positive at all 😆I used to buy houses for STR but now that I’ve got several STRs up and running that I bought many years ago, I stopped buying STR once mortgage rates went up and housing prices went up.

Can work out very well. you just need to make sure you and the owner/seller are on the same page. 

I bring to the table my full expertise in project management, construction, and deal sourcing, along with the knowledge I’ve gained working tirelessly in this industry over the past 3 years.My vision is to dedicate the next 10-15 years to real estate development, growing projects that generate significant returns while delivering exceptional results.If you’re interested in learning more, I’d love to discuss how we can collaborate.

When we moved our companies to a new accounting software we looked at Quickbooks, but found its international awareness (tax rules, multi-currency, locale support, etc), project/job, and multi-company abilities to be clunky.To be fair, none of the candidates hit everything on our wishlist.We ended-up selecting MoneyWorks by Cognito and have been satisfied with it over the past three years.

Hi @Joseph Goode I didn't see any responses on this so I wanted to see if anyone did get back to you via PM as I am interested in this topic as well.   

The borrower's financials play a big part as well.
