Compared to local insurance companies (I've used Farmers, state farm, and a several others over the past decade + of doing real estate) save me hundreds on monthly premiums.

Me and my significant other are currently located in NJ but dream of making this move happen on the island.

I'm certainly hoping for this, as I'm invested in two apartment deals that have been struggling in the suburbs near Phoenix.A post like this is a great way to meet local investors and agents, and you can always visit the Phoenix Market Page to learn more about the market, and begin browsing deals for sale in the area.

Anyone use a good, easy, and accurate tool to get comparable sales or rents in a location?

If entities are disregarded, you can keep up with more than 1 in a single QBO account using the location/business feature to keep track of them separately.If you want to discuss any of this further, I'm happy to answer questions and help walk you through it.Best of luck!

Quote from @Daniel Rabinov: I’m new to REI currently looking to acquire multifamily properties in the North Miami Beach, Aventura, and Hollywood areas that meet the following criteria:Price per Unit: Maximum $250,000 (4 PLEX MAX 1M)Cap Rate: 7.5% or higher as-is not pro formaValue-Add Potential: Properties that offer the opportunity to renovate, improve, and increase rents or overall property value.My focus is on underperforming properties with strong fundamentals that are located in these markets.

They can take time with their search and be more selective about a property’s location and condition.

I'd recommend reading up on the process more before you start (and local tax sales are coming up soon).

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

This is a great place to start though and learn.I would join some Host and local Facebook groups or see if you can find any property management groups that may need help in your area.
