This should draw further capital and also people looking to relocate for the cost of living. 

You can make or lose a pile of money in any of those.Thanks but I would rather pin point my self to a specific location before flying across the ocean.I am invest in real estate here for some time so I know walking is needed.

The seller then made the mistake of allowing the buyer to draw up the contract and closing docs, and further “saving” money by not hiring an attorney.

Draw a flathead screwdriver around the perimeter of a ceiling and in the joint between trim and wall before painting to get a good, thick indentation in plaster ane drywall to help you cut in.

Now in most cases the same renovation will require an engineer report, and full architectural drawings….I recently had to obtain structural drawings and complete special inspections for a rear trex deck….Just a few examples of costs someone will incur flipping a house in Philly.

This step should be done carefully, with legal advice, to minimize the risk of triggering the Due on Sale Clause.Monitor the Loan: Ensure timely mortgage payments to avoid drawing attention from the lender.Legal Support: Have an attorney review all documents and agreements to ensure compliance with local laws and mortgage terms.The Due on Sale Clause is a critical tool for lenders to protect their financial interests, manage risk, and maintain the quality of their loan portfolio.

For their upcoming renewal, I would like to draw up a brand-new lease and add an updated pet policy so they will know my rules if I give written permission (they have asked us to consider a dog- which current lease says no pets, but considered case-by-case). 

I do not want to go into another vacation market but rather a metro area with a more diversified economy again just to get into a different type of asset.That being said I do want to continue to short term rent the next few properties we get at least in the first few years of ownership in order to increase cash flow to combat these higher prices and carrying costs before potentially converting to more passive long terms down the line.Therefore I am looking for markets that 1) have a decent draw of visitors year round 2) have regulations that allow strs in some parts of the city 3) Are in growing cities in the west or south.Below is a list of markets I have identified as potential places to look and I was hoping to get some insight from either other investors doing the same thing or agents/investors in any of these markets on whether this is potentially a good market to explore or not.1) Salt Lake City (this is right at the top of my list due to its proximity to ski resorts, expanding of the airport and long term strategic business planning of the area but I have very little knowledge of this market)2) Denver 3) Phoenix (used to live in AZ and like the fact that the state of AZ seems to look favorable on strs)4) Tucson (see above but lower home prices/potentially less appreciation)5) San Diego/LA (these are attractive because of their proximity to my home in Irvine)6) San Antonio (love that it is very close to the booming Austin and feel that this is a market that could see some real growth in the future)7) Tampa/St Pete (I have always been very interested in this market for both short term and long term rentals)8) Raleigh (have invested in Charlotte and love NC but again very little knowledge on this area)Any insights or advice on any of this would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe selling one of those fully-owned condos and rolling the profits into a multi-family property that brings in even more rental income.A HELOC could give you flexibility since you can draw from it as needed for new investments or improvements to your current properties. 

Was thinking One Kids Rooms with 2 sets of Bunk Beds (Full on bottom/Twin on Top) because it still seems to be a fun draw to homes (would love thoughts here).
