There are really great REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are particularly lucrative - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

Hi David, take as much time as you need to learn the Nashville market.  

Utilities included.Fully rented.For sale off market.

Hi All, any input on renovating a house and possible tax exemptions under an LLC?

Even in housing.  

Your realtor will be able to give you a much more detailed market specific answer but with house hacking and a VA loan it should be possible to get 0 out of pocket.

I would for NOT do tree houses for liability reasons.

Hey @Brett Baker, generally, any place with a great water view or directly on the water will bring more revenue.Of course profitability will all be based on purchase price and prevailing nightly rates in the area.If you find a cool 2/2 or 3/2 right on the water with a great view for 1.5m or a 2/2 or 3/2 house a block away for 600k, then I would look at the house over the condo.

However, I made the decision when interest rate was lower and there was support for an appreciating real estate market.

I hope this house eventually stabilizes.
