Aside from the items that you already suggested, the only other thing you can use to verify the stated income is the seller's bank statements (not all sellers will release their bank statements, but some will).The expenses will vary a bit from owner to owner, so you're better off reaching out to a local property management company to get an understanding of how much things cost, unless you plan to self-manage the property. 

I have 3 properties in the Asheville area: 2 LTRs and 1 STR.

I'm thrilled to begin my journey into buying short-term rental properties.

For the better part of two decades I've been involved in real estate in some capacity including but not limited to: mortgage & real estate broker, developer, project manager, STR owner/operator/manager, international investor and beyond. 

All - received a marketing mailer today for my SA properties.

We find properties down this way all the time for 200k - 250k, they need 100k and are worth 450k - 500k after.

My investment knowledge spans across fix-and-flip projects, rental properties, and more.
