I have a friend who moved into an old house as a renter in Western North Carolina ~11 months ago along with a roommate who moved in who has been there for 2 monthsBoth of them recently have been reporting symptoms associated with exposure to mold lately such as a deep cough, fatigue, joint stiffness, and dizziness. 

I don't own property there (most of my property is in the Western US), but I grew up in the Pittsburgh area, so I know it pretty well, and I'm considering buying property there....As for taxes, if I remember correctly, PGH does have an unusual tax related to purchasing property, but I can't remember the details...perhaps a local pro like @Anthony Angotti can fill you in on that...

I see your from Pittsburgh, I have a lot of family in the western Pittsburgh, PA area near Oakdale.The reason my time to completion is only 1-2 months and $70,000 is my equity partner is a GC, younger guy around my age and a good friend.

There is an assumption by many people who don't live here that, in a city where you can find a functional 2-bedroom house for or less than $200,000 in practically every neighborhood, people are lining up to rent fashionable apartments for $1500 or more.The reality is far simpler.

Similar rates are available in Belgium so nothing that special if you are in a western country (don't know rates from elsewhere).

I think ND is extremely under-rated and I echo other's comments here how I'm surprised more out of state investors aren't looking in ND with opportunities for such higher CAP rates than western states.

For someone like myself who has close to 1000 colleagues, and even more so for someone like Josh who has 100k+, it would be a great benefit to have the ability to sort your colleagues in any fashion you desire.

Select calculators, and epending on what type of rental you are considering short term vs long term, you might want to use:AirbnborRent EstimatorOther ways to estimate rent:Short term rentals: https://www.airdna.co/Mid Term rentals: https://www.furnishedfinder.com/stats Long Term rentals: https://www.rentometer.com/You can also do it the old fashioned way, and call local apartment complexes for "comps". 

I also have many "blue collar" clients in my current BOB that I can leverage for getting work done on flips/inspections etc in a timely fashion (not to mention I trust them).

I did find a lander for this specific deal that didn’t work with Visio. 8.45% 30 yr fixed 75% LTV Cash Out based on 315k Value 10 yr Interest only  5-4-3-2-1 ppp1% Origination fee$1500 processing fee I don’t deal with local banks, I find them to be old fashioned with their processes and document heavy on the personal side which can be extremely wasteful.
