Past tenants have been utter nightmares and I'm trying to avoid that this go round. 

I like that little sport amphib that just came out.. same one Roy Halliday messed up in.. they are built in Davis CA.. and they do their test flying over at Lake Berryessa.. have to wait till they hit the used market and their first round of depreciation.. new I think they are 250k and that's a tad rich for a toy.

A goal of 8% that you provide with a secured asset bought right in 1st lien, especially given public market volatility, is the case you want to make to not only those in your area at REI's, but also corporate professionals and business owners looking to round out portfolios and play some defense. 

It’s a concentration of potent grass and weed killer ( round up on crack) and is like napalm on the yard.

I personally like that they're doing it, and hope some of the funding helps with affordable year-round housing. 

If you want to flip, it kind of goes like this, after you fix it up, you Sell for $90,000 - minus 6% real estate agent's fee or $5,400 equals $84,000 - Closing $1,000 = $83,000 - minus purchase price $55,000 = $28,600 - minus rehab $10,000 = $18,600 minus 6 months carrying costs (mortgage payments, water, electricity, sewer, insurance) $6,000 = $12,600 minus 3 hours travel round trip every day for 4 weeks to 8 weeks = whatever.

I send at least 3 rounds of mailers to some owners.

@Efraim L. perhaps educate yourself - 3 month summer rentals make more then year round rentals. 

Personally I invest in the Southern half of the US bc they get much higher year-round occupancy rates which is how you make the big 💰💰💰Slow season in the south is that 6-week period when occupancy drops to 50%.

For some reason, a lot of northern towns are FREAKING OUT about having too many STRs & they’re adding a lot of regulations.Another reason I invest down south is bc of the higher year-round occupancy.
