Hello, Starting to research about STR options/opportunities in Mexico (as a Canadian living in Canada).

Finding 1 solid deal this year could be your goal.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

A great way to start is by learning how to analyze deals and exploring strategies like buy-and-hold or house hacking.

In fact, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), over the past five years, home prices nationwide have risen by 57.4% (see map below):This appreciation means your house is likely worth much more now than when you first bought it.2.

What neighborhood is this in?

This will create your new basis.From an operational perspective, you might want to touch up a few things on the place to make it more rentable. 

I hear so many things from door knocking to contacting your circle of influence but lets be realistic there is tons and tons of tools that make outreach way more effective.What would be a good way to market to get 5 listings this month?

Flipping and rental properties are great areas to explore.

(Side note:  I'm not happy that I know any of this...hard earned lessons of real estate investing).
