In my opinion, it's THE best rental to hold in a landlord/investor perspective, AND it is the most complex and detailed to start into. 

When we started, we broke even.

At 10:30am our cleaner will start knocking on the door.One time we had a guest not leave until 11:00am and we charged him a $100 late fee that Airbnb paid us and we gave him a bad review.Hope that helps!

Totally stressed out when starting out, but everything worked out and I repeated the process a few times since.

I only know about the times where this was found out prior to closing, obviously I have no way to know about the times this shady behavior wasn't found out.Since you get a vote in who this tenant is, and it's retail, PSA that commercial lenders (especially the ones offering the best terms...) are starting to vet deals by how 'recession proof' the tenants are, even if they are currently paying on time.

For example, there are quality oceanfront homes for sale (as of this post) starting in the $650k price range. 3/2 slightly dated, but walk down your private stairs to the sand.

Hi Everyone,I am starting out in Tucson, AZ and looking for a property to flip. 

I myself chose the suburbs of Youngstown Ohio to get started in, statistically one of the least desirable metros in the nation.

Does anyone have any good starting points to start learning real-estate investing?

Luckily my newest and largest property only took three months to complete all majors repairs and for bookings to start filling up consistently.Do you have a mortgage?
