That cheap skunky weed can stink up a whole complex without even being smoked so she could be telling the truth anyways.

As I’m sure you know, Las Vegas is SUPER cheap compared to most of California, Miami, or NYC.

With BRRRR you typically need to buy a house that needs a LOT of work because you need to get it cheap enough and do a large enough rehab to increase the value WELL ABOVE what you have invested into it.

But if your looking to cash flow like $500 or more per month you might want to look into more cost effective markets where you can purchase a property very cheap and the rents will give you that type of cash flow your looking for.

I'll admit I don't really understand why an agent would want to help me find such cheap properties so I'm not exactly sure how to begin finding an investment agent like this.

It's not cheap, but I'm pretty impressed by the quality of resources and coaching they offer.

Easy to screen, setup leases (I do my own), and collect rent for very cheap fees. 

Unless you have some sort of subject matter expertise or access to an unfair advantage (cheap labor, ways to source off market deals, etc.), index funds are likely to provide an equal or better return with a MUCH lower hassle factor and more liquidity.

aim for a good house, not a cheap house as it will attract lower quality tenants and cost you more in the long run.

I love house-hacking for Tampa Bay for a few main reasons: 1) great long-term outlook on appreciation; fundamentally strong market and growth projections, 2) diverse opportunities of house-hacks from luxury house hacks, cheap house hacks, room by room, STR, MTR, etc.
