Start at a higher price point (not too high maybe 10%-20% higher than what you expect to rent for) then each week lower it just a bit until you get it rented out. 

To be more specific about what i'm looking to do: My 1-2 year goal is to employ the BRRRR strategy with SFHs and Condos by buying distressed / highly undervalued properties that need work (preferably all-cash) in low crime areas with strong rental demand, renovate them within budget (again preferably all-cash) and get them rent ready before refinancing them at the highest ARV possible.

Quote from @Michael Wheeler: Highly recommend the RAL Academy.

High praise coming from you Steve.

I know that this is a big risk property but I believe that it has the potential for high return if I can get all of this permitting and renovation work figured out on the front end.I'm just looking for any advice on how to cover myself on the front end prior to making an offer and how to expedite the work so that I can get renters in and start recouping on the investment as soon as possible.

This can be especially valuable for high-income earners who actively manage their properties.

Companies are unlikely to consider cities with high crime or cities with high operating costs.You will need multiple properties to replace your current income.

Interest rates are NOT high right now.

Short-term rentals (STRs) are highly regulated, particularly downtown, so areas like Mount Pleasant, James Island, and North Charleston may offer more flexibility.

So if conventional primary residence rates are that high, par rates on investment properties are generally higher.
