As @Jay Hinrichs mentions whether a piece of land is land locked (no street access without crossing other land) would be a  matter of a survey or check of tax plats.

I got my start living in a 4 bed, 3 bath house with 8 house mates and 4 dogs, plus there was usually one or two more people on the couch or in their van in the driveway as well.

The property is a 2 bed 2 bath with a den and a 1 car garage.

Purchase price: $204,000 Cash invested: $50,000 1300 Sq ft 3 bedroom 2 bath with an large 2 car garage sitting on a solid acre of land in Clayton NC.

I started out as an investor, focused mostly on value add, adding square footage, beds/baths.

Go to the local real estate events in these areas, drive/walk the streets, find a local real estate agent who invests in the area or works with investors in the area, and then go from there!

Hello BP members,I am a homeowner in MD, trying to crunch numbers to decide if I should move to TX or not.My current home A has 320k left on mortgage from 400k @2.5%, with remodelled kitchen and bath. 

We found a property (multi-family) 2 units, 2 bedrooms/2 baths in the front house, and a full bath with kitchen efficiency in the back unit. 

hi all, i’m newish to BP boards, thank you in advance for sharing your opinions + experience.i’m looking for opinions about how helpful an additional sleep number is in the income + rentability of an str.i’m potentially purchasing a 3 bedroom, 2 bath property which i will STR + also live in part-time.ideally, i’d like to have:*a king bed in the master bedroom*a queen bed in one bedroom*a queen memory foam pullout sofa in the third bedroomthis would be a 3 bedroom that sleeps 6this is my preference for:*general look of the house / not a house full of beds*number of guests/noise/cars*septic*would allow me to create a cute ‘chill out’ space in an extra bedroom-sized nook elsewhere in the house, which i think would be appealing to travelers.
