As I'm developing my marketing strategy for house hacking, I want to emphasize and understand who my potential roommates are and what their potential needs are.I envision the tenant to be a young professional or student looking for housing, but I would like to gather more insights:Amenities and Needs:What sort of amenities and features do young professionals and students typically look for in a rental property?

We originally hoped to rent as a mid term rental in a smaller town with a hospital, but the market quickly became oversaturated for the small demand so we decided to shift to long term rentals on both sides.

I know a lot of investors who have been pivoting to the secondary markets like Sumter, Florence, Orangeburg, etc.

@Douglas GratzWhat market are you generating 1000 profit per unit?

Do we charge market rent?

I'm looking to connect with more experienced BRRRR investors/realtors to learn more about how to build a team and the markets to invest in.

We knew at the price the house would cash flow, then the house market went crazy and rental prices went up tremendously and the appreciated sky rocketed so this is going to be an amazing first property for our portfolio.

On another note, you have some fairly restrictive laws regarding private lending, consumer protection (seller financing to an owner occupant) and loan servicing in CA state so make sure you are allowed to do this on your own and understand the licensure requirements to lend, broker loans, and service them as well.

I was not interested at 1.2 mil but became motivated buyer when I could buy it for 800 and get 100k of upside I said sure why not..3.   3 houses  125k closing i put up all the money  he had two of them sold for 100k and that closed 5 days after we bought it so basis on the last house is about 25k .. and its on the market for 89k. 

Investor looking to connect with brokers, other investors, and developers in the Louisville area to learn about the market and grow.
