Quote from @Steve Lehman: @William VreelandAs a local Indy Investor and RE consultant I have been flowing the IHA development closely to see what kind of developments have been happening.

The local/ state etc (governing body) may not just "give you" one.

In my local market (College Station, TX), high rates in 2024 already caused a big jump in inventory, which created some good buying opportunities.

Personally, I love them because they offer built-in diversification.In my experience, local banks are your best bet for financing mixed-use properties.

I believe in finding a local property property manager in close proximity to my properties.

Sometimes they’ll let you add meters and mailboxes without rezoning, but that depends on local rules, so definitely ask.For the septic, upgrading is probably a must.

Hey @Ryan Irwin thanks for the reply, would love to know how this deal plays out in your local market.

Subtract more for AirBnB charges, local management, repairs, cleaning, etc and there is not a lot left to pay the mortgage. 

Have had one complaint about not having cable, because the guest wanted local news.  

Hey Suzy, it is my understanding that any bank that has a local branch will work.
