BC and ON are very tenant friendly.

One friend of mine house hacked a duplex in Pittsburgh, initially making just $75/month after expenses.

She's not your friend and you're not her caseworker.

Jon Wolfe, the founder, is a friend of mine so let me put you in touch with him and his tech team will help you get it sorted out.

All of this said, be sure to do your research on STR regulations first and find a STR friendly location.

Asking for a friend who was told by his PM (reputable) to ignore it and that most investors don't bother to get their Grandview properties inspected/registered with the city. 

I went through this whole process recently of researching for Real Estate CPA and finally went with referral from friend that also invests in real estate. 

I think my next moves may be an out of state duplex and/or a local flip with a realtor friend of mine who has some experience doing it.

The pros are all true, but the cons are they need to make it ada compliant and elderly friendly.

@Brett Coultas if you're a newbie, you want to be careful of an "investor friendly" agent selling you something they truly don't understand:(95+% of agents only know how to handle owner-occupied transactions - you can verify this by asking them calculate ROI for you or Cash-On-Cash!
