.)- If use the property more than 15 days or 10% of the time it becomes a residenceI suspect this is part of why the STR trend has picked up so greatly amongst professionals working in tech.

Here's how I do my due diligence:1) Portfolio matching: (takes 30 seconds per deal)a) Have an educated opinion on where I think we are in the real estate cycles (financial and physical market cycles)b) Then and only then do I pick the strategies, capital stack, and specialized asset subclasses that make sense for that opinion.

I am looking into a deal and would like some advice and have people pick at it and let me know what I am missing in this proposed deal.I am a small real estate investor so far, I have 4 SFH rentals, 2 in Colorado where I live, and 2 in Texas.

Pick a desirable neighborhood where your home will appreciate and go for it!

Thats my strategy there ( by way of sqqq calls), basically selling all of my longterm portfolio and building up a war chest of 🤑 to go pick up options that I have a high degree of certainty will make some big gains (thanks to the inside scoop from youtuber meetkevin, I am a course member so I get his trading alerts.)I am sure that was probably a few more paragraphs then you would have wanted haha but yeah hope that helps and feel free to check back in i will be honest about wins and losses.I am really most excited to dig into Kai Andrews' course.Cheers folks! 

If it is, I will certainly pick it up and give it a read. 

I have a few properties I'm looking at, only interested in picking up one, maybe two max if the price is right.

You’ll pick up so much just by listening to people who’ve been through the highs and lows of the market.

@Frank Newsome the profile you started here on BP yesterday, doesn't show where you are from.So, not sure how you picked those 4 markets, other than they are all in Michigan.We're in the Metro Detroit market, not the other 3.Our website has a map showing all the cities in Macomb, Oakland & Wayne Counties, that make up Metro Detroit. 

I analyzed over 20 markets and picked three so there are a lots of markets to choose from.Start networking on bigger pockets as well as attend local meetups and REIs to find referrals for GC, PM, broker, TKP, lender, property inspector etc.
