But I find from personal experience and from my buyers' Airbnb experience that it's a bit of a hassle trying to get guests to rebook at the new listing.I don't know how strict Joshue Tree is at enforcement, but in Denver and Colorado Springs here, you could probably get away with an STR listing for three months without the license.

.- Many of these HCOL areas also have strict limitations on AirBnB or short-term rentals... that do not apply to owner-occupants - thus allowing for extreme cashflow potential for house-hackers.

What I mean is, some investors look strictly at cash on cash return, some look at cap rate, others just want to make sure their mortgage is covered.

They pay all of the utilities and regular routine maintenance such as pool, yard, trash, etc. 

its cheap  compared to what you get I found a strict foreclosure in Oregon that their site was on the only one tracking it and we made over 300k on that one deal. 

bad tenants need to be strictly held to the lease or the will try to take advantage of landlord softness. 

I know that i could buy my next multi family property as a primary residence close by move in, rent half live in the other and than rent where i am now which would cash flow upwards of 1k monthly, or i could buy another multi as strictly an investment property out of state which would be a lot cheaper (taxes and cost of property) and a lot more landlord friendly laws than New York, i guess i’m just undecided on which route i want to take and I’m trying to weigh the pros and cons of each scenario.

Hi Vincent, there is a significant difference in true Hard Money and rehab loans, rehab loans won’t be low doc by any means.Hard money should be fairly simple & quick to fund, it’s strictly equity based.How bad is the condition of the property?

I've done plenty of deals without and agent, off market not even on the MLS but I'm one of those wholesalers that did things properly, had qualified buyers before even reaching out to sellers and strictly stuck with assignments.Biggest problem is so many "wholesalers" barely have the understand of a deed or what title insurance is so there's an immense amount of knowledge they need before hand which can just be provided to them by getting a license!

The insurances like AAA are strict on the paint, roof, plumbing, electric etcThe houses are in Stockton, California.Thanks
