I can upload these lists into PropStream and PropStream will find the owner information and populate it into my list so I can export it and have if skiptraced.

Of course, the cost is high. 

Given the high interest and the purchase price isn't low, the cash flow won't be as nice as my other rentals or other options in a different neighborhood. 

But usually for a tenant occupied it's like $90-120 per monthI've noticed a lot of multi-family buildings are pre-WWII housing inventory - are there restrictions or issues common with that (historic districts, crazy high utility costs, etc)?

Hello @Devin Conley,At the current high interest rates (~7%), you will likely need to put 30% down to have a neutral cash flow.

Hey @Trevor Scheumann, The biggest thing to look for when visiting a new potential market is going to be to network with boots on the ground, namely property managers, highly recommended realtors and maybe a few contractors if they come from trusted sources.

However:Strategic Tax Planning: Work with a CPA who specializes in real estate to maximize deductions like depreciation, interest, and operating costs.Higher Rents for Premium Properties: Some investors offset the tax by focusing on properties in high-demand areas (downtown Greenville or near universities, for example) where they can charge a premium rent.Short-Term Rentals (STRs): Consider STRs like Airbnb, where higher nightly rates can make the numbers work better than long-term rentals.

Quote from @JD Martin: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Quote from @Matthew Drouin: Small wine town is all I needed to hear.Seasonal tourism is usually not a great industry in which to build a sustainable business.There are probably higher and better uses of your capital near high velocity metro areas.We have small wine towns near our city in the finger lakes region of western NY.  

Falcon Foundation, highly recommend.
