Any information would be great!

I have some great agents in the area that I can introduce you to, who can help you make an informed decision and find the right property for your investment goals.

Make sure any lease agreement you use complies with Arizona's landlord-tenant laws, including required disclosures (like bed bug information, for example).If you're unsure, consulting with a local real estate attorney to review the agreement can provide peace of mind and ensure you're fully protected.

Our lender has informed us that we need 12 months of rental history to use the actual rent for financing purposes, or we must rely on the appraiser's fair market short term rental value.

Hopefully this helps clear up the main point of your post!

If it does go to probate, hopefully your brothers and you can amicably go the informal route vs formal (I've worked with families in both when buying properties out of probate and informal is FAR easier).Since there's no debt on the house, maybe you could sell with financing or maybe you could even buy out your brothers with financing -- that way you maintain ownership and just pay them a monthly amount.

The numbers may not be that favorable in LA for this, I don't have enough information. 

Here's how to pin a house and the information it shows.

I always find myself getting caught up in YouTube videos, but they're never really informative.
