But there are areas that are more desirable than others.

I’ve learned very quickly there is no actual wrong answer to this question, because each person asking the question is completely different experiences and desires. 

Hey BPers, I’ve got another question for you all.I’ve been working through educating myself more and more on how to use comps to determine FMV and ARV, and I think from face value i understand comparing all the bones of comps such as bed rooms, size, year, condition, garages, location, etc etc.My subject property is a top/bottom duplex where the garage is behind the building which I believe is less desirable.

In other words, you as the landlord can put your thumb on the scale to get the tenant to pick the option you desire the most.

Hi everyone, A co-worker of mine recently told me about Landlord Credit Bureau.Seems like they have desirable opportunities for both landlords and tenants that use the service. 

Have just enough ambition to fuel your drive, desire and to get to the goal that you want to reach.Have a wonderful day BiggerPockets and keep your eyes on the prize.

@Nova Mendoza - depending on your desire to be actively involved... passively investing in a syndication can be a great option to invest out of state.

It's a small house (1081 square feet) in a desirable area, on a premium lot (a little over 1/4 acre) on a cul-de-sac.

you should have refi'ed anyway into a commercial loan so that the lien and mortgage is under the LLC's name for the limited liability protection desired (or else, what was the point??)...
