It's a range and depends on the property type, location, end condition and rental strategy. 

It requires a solid FICO, that you get pre-approved with all current financials held in file beforehand, with the complete contract package submitted upon execution which starts the clock; insurance must be arranged within three days for lender underwriting. 

I completely agree that luxury rentals need to offer more than just aesthetic appeal; they need to resonate with tenant expectations and justify the premium rents.

Hello, I am new to the BiggerPockets forum and looking to purchase my first investment property this year. Looking in Denver metro for either SFH or STR opportunities. Any potential leads would be appreciated. Thanks

@Ricky Hernandez  We bought in two different communities that had no rental restrictions then later imposed cap of 10% rentals. 

Oh and it's even more fun when you get a surprise package in the mail with fun stuff and apparel! 

So you can have section 179 losses for your rental even if the rental isn't generating positive taxable income, as long as you have other active income. 

Does anyone know of any folks in the Austin, TX area available to show properties to potential tenants? I manage properties remotely and can handle all the leasing/management pretty easily with my team. Just need some...
