We bought the property at below market rate because the seller was motivated and needed to close quickly.

If rates drop, more buyers will come to the market and you can refinance to lower your monthly payment.

Hi @Adriano Triana, nice to meet on the BP platform.It depends very much on your knowledge of the market.

Higher-cost markets can still work with appreciation, rent growth, and creative financing.Best next steps?

We're an appreciation market, not as much of a cash flow market here, unless you're putting a large down payment or actively managing STR's.Buying out-of-state can get you more cash flow, but the tradeoff is less appreciation (usually), and cash flow can be eaten up by maintenance and expenses.

But it's playing with fire to buy there if STR is a priority as it's very likely they will eventually start enforcing it better.Yes I've seen this same thing in some of the markets we operate in.

I believe there will be major market decline due to other things, but I hope not.  

Why do you think this will do well when you make it look nice on the open market and disclose it's in a flood zone and flooded in the past year?

Ultimately you need to understand the underlying economics, psychographics and demographics of the market you are purchasing in to know if and how you can re-tenant the property.I'm a bigger fan of dollar generals or family dollars that are in multi tenant shopping centers. 

Not the best time of year and we're in an emerging market area about an hour outside of Charlotte, NC.30Y DSCR c/o Refi's have already been done on every eligible property after rehab / 3 months seasoning.As more of our properties come up on 1+ yr of ownership, despite losing likely future appreciation of 25-30%+ annually and paying a 5% PPP, I are open to selling some houses off to start paying off much of the high interest debt accumulated outside of mortgages.
