I do not have any 1 BR STRs/MTRs but I have seen annual STR rents based on bedroom count in both my market (San Diego) and emerald coast (one of the markets I have made offers) and the difference in the income is substantial between 2 BR and 1 BR.  

The safest bet is to get yourself some oil based primer and a coat of paint on the interior when turning it over.

You know, I always think that is very misleading when they charge thousands of dollars to newcomers base off marketing that boasts getting into real estate with no money down.These deals cost money. 

Then speak with the planner to see what types of businesses / buildings they think are a good fit for the property based on the master plan for the area. 

These areas have multiple military bases and constantly have turnover with families moving in and out of town. 

The max you can offset for a LTR is 25k and this is phased out based on your level of income.

Is your new property tax based on the assessed value of the home or the price you purchased it for at the auction?
