I'd give you websites but the over bearing moderators tend to remove them here on BP.

@Nick Breslin -Jim Lerman does a great job moderating the NWREIA meeting in Tigard every month.

I recently ran the numbers on Boise's affordability rate and I can't quite remember the numbers, but Boise ranked as "moderately unaffordable".

Assuming moderate success on AirBnB, that would get us to about what we are paying in rent, maybe a little better off (at least we are paying a mortgage and not rent at this point).

Assuming the deals are value-add or new developments with moderate leverage/risk targets.

I first connected with some of the group moderators here on BiggerPockets first.

**Moderate Rental Income**: With a monthly income of $4475, the property offers a fair return on investment with expectations for growth.My Net Cash on Cash is 0.6% Not ideal but with yearly expectations for rental increases and equity growth, I will eventually get a good cash flow.

I complain about many of the rental policies, especially the Covid eviction moratorium in San Diego County as it was the most excessive moratorium in the country (which I find surprising as San Diego is fairly moderate politically for CA - the county board of supervisors who created the moratorium consists of 3 democrats and 2 republicans).However, San Diego has one of the lowest delinquent rent rates in the country and one of the lowest eviction rates in the country.This is because there is a huge housing shortage with very low vacancy rate.

I also look for areas where the tax rates are low to moderate.
