You can start looking now and assume that returns you find on current properties for sale will be similar to what they are now with a few exceptions. 

What insurance company do you know covers short term rental by the room for a single family house?

I have a client that just started in Phoenix and doing well.

I would think that with an eviction or even the start of an eviction process that would severely negatively impact her ability to get a new lease.

Hello BP landlords,My property’s mailbox keys were not returned by the previous tenants and my management company is saying that they can not get my mailbox keys until a new tenant is in the property so they can request a key with a copy of the lease. is there any way I can request a mailbox key from the USPS before my unit is rented?

I own a construction company and would manage them and manage maintenance myself, and likely even rent a unit to myself to keep it simple (I’ve been a resident manager before too).

The strategy you are implementing we like the call the "Holy Grail" of house hacking haha; purchasing a small-multifamily to house hack with a VA are powerful tools, and done correctly can really help kick start and build a great porfolio.

I advise my clients to compare their property to the comps they are looking to chase for the ARV & start with the kitchen/bathrooms and then work their way through their budget to match or slightly top the comps in the neighborhood.

You can either pay your agents fee on your own or ditch the agent and deal directly with a title company if the seller is adamant on it.

Sure it starts getting warmer out and people (buyers) start looking again for homes.
