If you're more of a 'personal referral' person than a 'do research online' person, and this is local to you in Manhattan, KS, hit up one or two of the trades people in the "little apple all stars" BNI group.

I've heard some rumors of Airdna skewing data a bit (I've heard this first hand and read online.)

I recommend doing your research and looking at properties online. 

While you are figuring it out and/or deploying it over time, US Treasuries and certain CDs are paying 5%...and 4% for certain online savings accounts.

However, if all they offer is general info, I think you can find most of it yourself in Bigger Pockets and other online sources.

I found it researching online after many months.

- Each Housing Commission sets their own rent rates, based upon market rents for Class C properties in their area.You should be able to find an online list of S8 rents per bedroom for your area.

Just shop around online, look for properties similar to yours, add them to favorites and watch them to see how long it takes for them to rent.
