We were still figuring out the best way for the renter to pay their monthly rent for the first two months.

My last one was my biggest one which included a 1000 sqft extension to an 1100 sqft single-family house.

•Rental Rates: What can I realistically expect in terms of nightly or monthly rates for short-term rentals?

After a thorough market analysis, I reached out to the seller directly and negotiated a fair price based on comparable sales and the property's current condition, emphasizing my ability to close quickly.

I’m new to investing and I’ve been hearing cash flow is tax free.

Best of luck to you on your project, so glad it is going well for you. 

Hello, I recently listened to a podcast with Mindy and Scott.

I listed a rental property on Zillow and paid for premium exposure to increase visibility.

In the immediate are there are 3 houses on FF that are going for 4000 to 6000 a month, but they are 3 BR to 4BR SFHs.

This is consistent with data from sources like Zillow, Redfin, and the local Santa Barbara Association of Realtors.However, when I go to "Pick Markets" and select Santa Barbara, the median home price listed is $620,000, which doesn’t align with what I’ve observed locally.
