I would like to find a way to generate additional income and am exploring options other than having a long-term roommate.

would get estimates and see how long to recover the money and your long term plan for the property

.- you'll want to define "best", and what that looks like for you as a success.- How much money do you have to spend?

If you acquire one new property each year, you could significantly increase your wealth and potentially position yourself to qualify for larger investments, like apartment buildings or construction loans, within 10 years.I’ve worked with clients who have successfully implemented this strategy, and it has proven to be an effective path to building long-term financial freedom through real estate.Good luck with your decision!

In some cases, federal tax credits like those for low-income housing or economic development might also apply if the project aligns with certain goals.Instead of buying the land outright, developers often lease it from the tribe, which can reduce upfront costs and sometimes come with favorable lease terms.

I’m finding a hard time finding comps for a long term rental.

If you want to be generating leads from a website, SEO will help with credibility and long term visibility, and an attractive website will also help with building credibility and trust too.

Hi @Bien Nguyen, @Josh Green is the go to realtor/investor here in Florida for all your STR needs and will be able to guide you towards making a successful investment/purchase.

Finally from a purely from a cash outlay prospective short term, you could rent a house with roommates and your payment would still probably be Lower than house hacking because rates are so high, over the long period 5-10 years obviously it would cheaper ti buy, hope that makes sense 

If so you should be able to qualify for solid terms on a DSCR based loan.
