At this time, the types of properties that I'm interested in pursuing are primarily multi-unit rentals and short term AirBnB properties.

My family have been flipping single family rentals in these markets under MartelTurnkey.com for about 10 years.

Step 1— Read everything here that is relevant to your situation https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/property-managementStep 2 — List your property on Zillow, Apartments.com and Facebook Marketplace — that will give you exposure to 80%+ of the rental market Step 3 — Keep taking action on the scary things—they're not as scary as you thinkGood luck!

I recently joined the community and I'm evaluating a property with the rental calculator tool.

Room rentals will operate with higher expenses so please keep that in mind when you're making the decision.

My husband and I are planning to buy rental properties in Davenport, IA.

For those who have tried Airbnb long term rentals (typical more than a month), how do you factor in the utility bills?

Does it make sense to list the rental on the MLS or would listing it just on Zillow Rental Manager suffice?

I would recommend reaching out to local property managers who specialize in Section 8 Rentals to get a better sense of what timelines are looking like for section 8.

I just closed on a 23 unit mobile home park, almost all lot rentals.
