With the use of VRBO, Booking.com and direct bookings can all raise your chances of staying booked and being successful.  

The reason is the rent-to-price ratio is good so you can cash flow, and most of the West side doesn’t have a Point of sale inspection which is really annoying.

I’d appreciate your perspectives.Here are the details about our current home:3/2 Class A property in a middle-America town with historically ~1% annual appreciation.Purchased in 2020 for $200,000 at a 3% 30-year fixed rate.Remaining mortgage: $150,000.Estimated value: $270,000 (based on recent sales).After selling costs: Likely $100,000 in net proceeds.Rental potential: $2,000–$2,300/month.PITI: $1,200/month ($700 mortgage + ~$500 insurance/taxes).Maintenance/CapEx/Vacancy (20%): ~$400/month.If kept as a rental:Net cash flow (self-managed): ~$500/month or ~$300/month with property management.Low appreciation potential but ~$400/month in principal paydown.Considerations:What’s the additional overhead of managing a second rental property remotely (3 hours away)?

I want to minimize my leverage as much as I can for my first one, just to give me the best chance of success.Got it, @Geoff Engel!

I'm in a team who does these deals and we have a team of "door knockers" who go back weekly till the auction, they file bankruptcy which only delays 3+/- months 100% chance that the lender will as that their mortgage is removed from the bankruptcy they file NOD yet again.   

If cap rates rise, values might soften, but industrial fundamentals still look strong.Timing the Sale: If you’re worried about missing the peak, you could consider a phased approach—sell a portion of your portfolio or 1031 exchange into a more diversified asset mix.2.

-The right “how” will attract the right “who” and discourage and weed out the wrong “who”.Me and my property management team developed the a 40-Point Complete Household System to not leave the “how” to chance.

You will report worldwide income on your federal and Kansas tax returns.You will also include the MO activity on your KS return.Your MO return will only include the acitivity within that state, which in this case, is the rental property.In the future, if you have income in MO(either through the sale of the property or through rental income), you will pay tax to MO but KS will give you a credit for any taxes you pay to MO.best of luck
