Hi BP members, I'm getting ready to close on 3 family in the Weequahic area in Newark NJ and was wondering if anyone have any of their properties listed on Airbnb as I was thinking of converting 1 of my units into short term rentals. would like to hear any hurdles or successes people have had with Airbnb in any parts of Newark.

You want to look for similar options and see what they charge.If they are charging $1100-$1300 and have no vacancy you're in good shape, otherwise move on to another idea.So, to summarize a bit, this strategy works really well in areas where small apartments are in short supply and fairly high rents.

It's not mandatory that you attend @Wes Short, but if it's your first one, you may want to go so you learn and have more familiarity about the process. 

This needs to be just short of confrontational.

Long story short, a relative has a property they've purchased that they don't have the time to manage since they are doing a much much much larger project.

Thanks for putting this question out there - personally, using a daily journal has helped to keep me focused on my short- and long-term goals.

Something short and simple. 3 bedroom, 2 bath duplex for rent in great school district!

Long story short I have a potential deal for my IRA that I am looking at.Here are the figures: Area: North Phoenix (North of Phoenix Mountains Preserve)Condo, 2 beds, 2 baths at 1134 SFSale price is $112,000Downpayment is 10%P&I is about $510, Other expenses (Vac, Cap ex, Repairs, HOA, PM, Ins, Tax) is $583 for a total of $1093. 

I have learned so much in a short period of time on this site and there seem to be quite a few other ROC investors here as well.

That could really mess with your numbers in the short term.
