@Annabelle Rozen  I believe the stability of the rental market within Allentown is rather robust. 

AirDNA – This is my go-to for market research.

Purchase price: $417,500 Cash invested: $37,575 We weren't super happy with anything we were seeing on the market, so my husband and I had just started writing letters and looking off-market... until we saw this property.It'd been sitting on the market for months, originally listed around $550,000.

I did not see marketing costs, nights that you need to spend at networking meetings paying for dinners or memberships.

You need the backup option in case the mid-term rental market changes.Minimizing turn costs and downtime is critical.

As a result, while the US market is stuck in the lock-in effect, the Canadian market is kinda booming so it makes more sense for Americans to consider Canada nowadays, except for the fact that Canada has on average one of the if not the most unaffordable real estate in the world.Hope this helps.

Partnering makes sense in this market as it allows us to split the risk and maximize returns.My goal is to close one deal this year and scale from there.

Plenty of investors work the Atlanta market but the ROI is better in Huntsville and Atlanta is tenant friendly.

They are experts and an incredible local market resource.

I own one rental house in Cypress, but with the current market I have not been able to find another existing single family home to buy that looks like a good investment.
