Hi @Raechel ClevengerOne thing to remember when you are getting into RE investing is to have your team of people or as Brandon Turner from the Bigger Pockets Podcast calls it your CORE 41.

Every time I go to bid on property on civic source people are bidding it up to or over market value.

This is a great place to learn and to meet people so take advantage of all the great resources. 

Was like most people who get into STR deals, wanted higher return.

As for taxes, I'd recommend connecting with a CPA or tax attorney who has experience with rental properties held in LLCs.

Most of the well know people in the note business are on Bigger Pockets.

Can the property be held by an LLC that all 3 of us are memebers of? 

Personally, I think the taxes are high and the services you get for your taxes low there.I know people that invest in Detroit but you must know the area down to the street and have excellent property management.However, I just talked to my CPA today about a referral he was sending me who is a client of his that has 30 rental properties in Detroit and selling them all because the City doesn't really help, charges for everything, and they never have given a security deposit back to a tenant after they stayed because of their behavior or lack of payment.

What draws people to Las Vegas?
