Sources of investment propertys and yhield based upon a buy and hold strategy,I hope you can help me.Wow,Its been a while since I have been back home haha2+ years now lolIts too expensive IMO and many folks are buying high and hoping to sell higher.Hoping a property will go up in value is not a strategy.

No extra fees added for repairs, I'm allowed to contract my own people via the PM to do services(HVAC, lawn, water heater, etc.)

Maybe to have extra cash for repairs. 

With all of that said, my main goal is to have long term appreciation and if there is a little extra cashflow at the end of the month, great. 

I've allowed pets in my STR for five years and haven't had any problems except some extra cleaning a couple times, which was paid for by the guest. 

My opinion-- buy in the winter, underwrite with an extra long vacancy, get some seller concessions to defeat the cash flow if it's really that tight.

The nicer houses had brick foundations but regular folks built on cedar piers.

Software automates what you already know (hopefully) - for some folks they get in trouble because they assume the software "knows" and they don't bother to learn it.

I’ve personally helped folks navigate 1031 exchanges in Phoenix, rolling their gains from one property into something bigger and more strategically placed.

We also allow instant book but only to folks that have positive reviews.
