I tried a STR as well jumped on the band wagon and hated it.

Hi all - I am an experienced investor in Central AR (from Little Rock to more rural locations up to 1.5 hours away, SFH & multi, etc.)

If you're going to buy OOS, look at Class A or B and get to know those areas on a detailed level (fly or drive there multiple times).  

We manage over 300 doors in Little Rock, Arkansas.  

Does anyone have any recommendations for a CPA experienced in real estate investing in the Austin/Round Rock area? 

I totally agree, so many properties there are new and beautiful that there needs to be *something* to really stand outYou make a really good point re: no plan B, and in general I’ve seen the home values in that market depreciating (assuming because of the boom / growth in supply in the last couple years).I might be wrong here but I assumed that a general trade off between vacation market and metro areas would generally be that strs in vacation markets don’t really have a plan BI’m pretty split at the moment, but really appreciate your thoughts

This may be easier to find in smaller towns or rural areas.Growth potential: Research areas with growing populations or emerging business districts.Tax incentives: Some localities offer incentives for small businesses or specific industries.Infrastructure: Ensure reliable internet and necessary utilities for your business.Potential locations to explore:Atlanta suburbs: Consider areas like Decatur, Marietta, or Lawrenceville for a balance of affordability and proximity to the city.South Carolina: Look into growing areas like Greenville, Rock Hill, or smaller towns in the Upstate region.North Carolina: The Research Triangle area (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill) offers opportunities, as do smaller cities like Asheville or Wilmington.Remember to thoroughly research local building codes, zoning laws, and business regulations in any area you're considering.
