Have an abundance mentality, there's enough for all!

The point is make sure you exhaust your search for answers and don’t get mesmerized because it’s a great deal! 

So just be mentally and financially prepared.

The thing is the majority of the posts that come from the BP mentality is more more more.

If, while running your numbers, the returns are within range to your criteria, do not lower the expenses to "make it work", but just know that some months may be higher, some may be lower, and if you have the cash reserves to support a higher bill or unexpected repair, then the underwriting at least helps you mentally prepare ahead of time.Any calculator, based on the inputs from any noobie or seasoned professional, will NEVER be the same as your actual numbers.

The ENTIRE mentality here is wrong.Listen carefully and hoe you and everyone else here understands this.Consider this.I have 15 kids, 4 dogs, 300 chickens, 3 wifes (that don't know about eachother), an uber eats job, and 35 dollars to my name.

That's a stock market day trader mentality.  

I didn't do an exhaustive search, so this location is just an example.I'm considering either Reno or Las Vegas, but Las Vegas looks like a better location for this, since it has more direct flights to other international airports, and has more visitors to generate STR income.

Thank you for exemplifying the greed-driven mentality that pervades our society, where profiting off the thirst for knowledge takes precedence over genuine goodwill.

That tenant started out great and had a mental collapse.
