Fast forward 2 years his landlord mentioned in passing he might sell the property; I was the first person on his mind.

I had another person speak highly of New Western.

Personal finance is as much behavioral as it is math.

Personally, I'd start looking in markets you're familiar with, similar to what you said in your post.

As long as no “healthcare” services are provided (like medication or personal care), it’s not regulated by the Department of Health.

Maybe we can help a lot of people on this Bigger Pockets platform.So if you are an experienced investor, flipper, or buy and hold person?

Some high-end STR's (like in Joshua Tree) do use professional models, but for your market and property type, I’d suggest removing personal photos and focusing on the space itself, so guests can imagine themselves there, which is really what you want.You also have 81 photos, that’s too many.

Choose a goal so ambitious it forces you to grow into the person who can achieve it.

Either way, $600 in cash flow should actually help your personal DTI if you go for conventional financing on a primary again. 

It's stronger in court if they do it, nothing personal.
