@Shane Siebenthall,I am a local property manager that services the greater Sacramento Region and word of advice is to speak to a local real estate attorney.

There is a strong community of baltimore region investors here on BP.

Hi Chandra, it's very regional specific and also time specific as building cost keeps moving up.

I have shopped multiple other companies.My current company, Nationwide, is about to push a 25% increase to my entire region.

Good day Tom,As an agent who solely focuses on working with STR investors, I would highly recommend zoning in on the specific area of interest and then work towards finding a credible agent in that region.

Local, regional, national?

The attention Pete Buttigieg Has brought to the region, the project underway to shorten the commute to Chicago on the South Shore train and the exodus of Illinois residents seeking lower taxes all have me very optimistic.  

If anyone who does read this an resides in the 570 region I would love to have a sit down an speak about the startups.

Depending on the location, NYC can be a tricky market these days so its great to see things are moving along for you.For Capital Region, NY I'd recommend connecting with @Nate Monson!

All this aside, decide on a region, call 5-10 realtors in that area, vet them, and turn them in to allies.
