Have you ever visited the Oregon Coast, what's your favorite beach? 

One of my favorite Sat. flights used to be going from Portland out the columbia up long beach shoot the approach into Aberdeen then go along the East side of the Olympics to Friday harbor for lunch and then back to Portland in time for cocktail hour.. stunning scenery..

We ended up finding a GEM in one of our favorite locations, but they wanted conventional offers only. 

In my field of work, we collaborate with different tax professional all over the country and I personally have a few favorites with various knowledge and insights!

Check out my personal favorite, Set For Life by Scott Trench , or The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey.3.

I've tried 5 different rent collection platforms and Turbotenant is by far my favorite.

Rent                $2,600/month as MTR                           Vac (5%)         -$130                                                                                                  Main.

I understand the capital region, the Adirondack region, and Western New York (Rochester and Buffalo) have their strengths and weaknesses, but I'm going to focus on this central part of the state.Binghamton is my favorite investment market for a few reasons, but it's not for everyone.STRENGTHS-  low prices-  blue collar overall, meaning lots of resources for contractors-  growing university, consistently growing rents-  I expect to see an actual 10% cap rate here, higher if the property needs work-  compared to downstate, permitting, evictions, etc. are simple and quick-  no code compliance inspections required on existing multifamiliesWEAKNESSES-  no. natural. appreciation.

This is not my favorite option as most real estate agents wouldn't know how to handle the marketing of a property with a tenant currently in it. 2) Find an investor friendly agent who might already have buyers looking for that type of property.

Otherwise, you can use a source like Propstream or TitlePro247 from a you favorite local title company to research homes on the market with assumable loans.
