Comps, vrbo/airbnb and finally pinterest is your friend.

And never let friends or family rent from you. 

@Austin BullThere are a lot of us here that are Investor Friendly Agents in the greater Phoenix metro.

But once again, when I say wholesale, I mean taking title at $200,000 and re-selling to a cash investor (end-user or rehabber) for $235,000.

I invest in Boise, ID and do quite a few BRRRRs, LTRs and STRs- varying degrees of success depending on how much equity we can force and the type of back end financing we can find, but the tax benefits are great and it's a rapidly growing market and Idaho is probably the most landlord friendly state in the nation. 

Once you have a good understanding of what you can afford, reach out to your landlord in a friendly and casual way.

If you buy 2-3 bedrooms house, you have have up to 2 friends.

Could VRBO users from Michigan provide some clarity about the topic of sales tax/lodging tax collection and payment to the state.

I’m looking for some advice on a fix/flip property that I purchased with two friends almost two years ago.

Cash flowing markets, low taxes, landlord friendly and large demand in renters.
