My husband and I are looking to buy our first ever real estate investment out of state (we live and rent in NYC. we do not want to buy here due to high cost of properties and high tax rates).

Cashed out on a primary to buy an investment when the rates were good.

Ideally, I would like to buy in the Catskills since it’s close by, a popular year round destination from the city and has a history of vacation rentals but I know there’s more and more talks of regulations so I am open to other areas and would love to hear your thoughts/experience on the area.Would love to connect with anyone who has interest in the area and the short term world as well as agents familiar with STR who could help us in our search.

On the revenue side, I still see that renting is way more affordable than buying anything, so the rental market will be okay for some time, especially for up to 3K a month.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Now that would give me $100k and might be able to buy two properties.

I am also a real estate agent now who will be able to buy and list my own properties..I would like to BRRRR if it makes sense on the refi to pay off the LOC, or sell for a quick turn around.Thoughts/suggestions?

Anyone having major success with only buying SFH and renting them out to tenants to make good cash flow each month and re-investing?

I’m about to PCS to San Antonio for a year and was considering buying an investment property to live in while I’m there, then rent out after I leave.My question is this: since we’re restricted in getting fixer uppers with the VA loan (I know there are renovation loans), what are you looking for with the property?

There is a lot to learn as its very different than just buying a stock.
