There are other avenues to review but I agree past rental history is important (disclosure I have 15+ doors right now)If you feel bad for them then rent to them.My point is its corporate america and you are blaming the wrong person - you are blaming the corporation but you should be blaming the politicians who create an environment that is tenant friendly and sue happy. 

It has a slightly more vacation-friendly vibe with its arts scene, annual events, and outdoor activities that draw visitors regularly.Since you're targeting STR occupancy over 50% without extreme seasonal dips, you might consider neighborhoods near popular attractions, like Tulsa’s Downtown Arts District or the lake areas nearby, which offer steady, diverse visitor interest.

One land lord friendly ( jackson MS) one Not landlord friendly Portland OR metro with its rent control and other very tough rules.

Software is very user friendly, reports are easy to understand, owner and tenant portals are also user-friendly.  

If you have any tips on reaching more people and building a pipeline while staying budget-friendly, I’m all ears.Looking forward to learning from this community, sharing what I know, and getting back into the real estate game full force.

@Teahjsia Frazier - If you're targeting a BRRRR for your next deal I would consider using a combination of your money, private money (friends and family), as well as hard money for the purchase and rehab.

Find a local investor-friendly realtor in your area who can give you an overview and assist you as you start to get to work.

Your spouse, partner, friends, or family are not on board with real estate investing.

Between hearing the history here and the feeling of dread in my heart I've had enough at this point but my friend loves this kind of stuff and wants to look around some more, so I leave and go back to the car while he checks it out. 

Do you know that most people have about $1k in their bank accounts and the average american has about $5k in CC debt… You are doing well my friend and time you appreciate yourself for it!
