Real estate agents, property managers, and contractors who specialize in your target market can save you time and money in the long run.

If you used a loan to rehab your property and find yourself in a difficult position, doing a straight refi (just paying off the old mortgage) will be easier than trying to pay off the original loan and take additional cash out.

It is quite rural and it is much easier to get a permit for these sorts of things if you even need one.

First thing I recommend is to figure out your target market.

I’m Keagan, a realtor and investor based in Indianapolis, and I’ve worked with several clients on value-add multifamily deals and have done a couple myself.For finding off-market opportunities, I’d recommend:County Tax Delinquent Lists – Great for uncovering distressed properties.Direct Mail Campaigns – Target out-of-state owners.Local Networking Events – Connect with wholesalers who specialize in multifamily.I’d be happy to introduce you to lenders and share leads if Indy is on your radar.

Target Price: $575K-$589K; ARV: $630K.

I’m from Houston and particularly interested in the Houston market and its surrounding areas so it is easier to manage.My Criteria:* To buy: 3bd/3ba property at Max: $350K.

The longer you hold the property for investment the easier it is to demonstrate that you did in fact intend to hold the property for rental or investment purposes. 

If you are specifically targeting travel nurses, it will benefit greatly if the home is near a hospital. 

But nowadays pvc or pex is an easier fix.
