.- The numbers may have an impact on your decision.You may also want to read your condo's Home Owners Association Master Deed & Bylaws to make sure there are no restrictions on any type of rentals. - Many HOAs have LTR restrictions and some now have implemented STR restrictions.Also, hopefully you've updated the home insurance policy of your current STR rental from a homeowner's policy to a landlord policy.

A few months after I finished my campaign I got a call from someone who kept my letters and we actually closed a deal.

Tenant Turner doesn't integrate with video monitoring and their questionnaire to prescreen showings disqualifies for service animals for any pet restrictions, I think I remember.  

HOA, shopping center,  or neighborhood restrictions?

Quote from @Jake Tiffany: Hey everyone, many of you send mailers, texts and all sorts of campaigns to try and find deals.

Here’s the quick-and-dirty lowdown to get you started:1️⃣ Where to Look:LoopNet & Crexi: Good for commercial deals, though the best ones go fast.MLS (Multiple Listing Service): Access through a realtor for hidden gems.Auction Sites: Think Auction.com or HUD homes for distressed properties.Direct Mail Campaigns: Target landlords with older properties (especially those with code violations).2️⃣ Systems for Finding Deals (Step-by-Step):Set Your Criteria: Market, budget, unit count, rehab level.Build a Deal Funnel: Use LoopNet, Crexi, wholesalers, auctions, and brokers.Analyze Quickly: Use a property calculator to see if it cash flows.Direct Outreach: Contact sellers or property managers directly.Get Your Network Tight: Property managers, realtors, contractors—they’ll drop the best leads.3️⃣ What Makes a Good Deal:Cash Flow Positive from Day 1.Below Market Value (usually needs rehab).Upside Potential: Think rent increases, better management, or refinancing options.4️⃣ How to Become the Better/Best:Study the Market Like a Hawk.

I choose a larger bank (better rates), two local banks (less restrictions, and one in which I already banked.Step 3 (network with everyone): During my lunch breaks at work and in between changing diapers I would call/text anyone I knew or didn’t know to discuss real estate.

You could be a private investor for a house flipper, but then you would be the bank and I am not sure how that would sit with your faith.I would park the money in index funds if you can't do syndications just because you are restricting the possible use of your money in real estate.

Depending on which market you plan to invest, it's also helpful to educate yourself on state restrictions + laws, rental property management etc. before diving in.

While residential development is generally restricted in these areas, there are specific circumstances under which it may be permitted:Special Mixed-Use Districts (MX): In certain M1-2 zones, residential use is allowed when paired with a residential district under the MX designation.
