If this is an STR, DSCR lenders will require that you have booked the property on an STR site for 12 months or have 12 months of prior experience with a different property.

I wanted to share a few strategies that have really worked for us when it comes to maximizing ROI on rental properties.

Any list you can pull for a few bucks has already been hammered by hordes of investors before you.Not saying this way can't work, but I recommend a different path...I prefer to focus on sellers who have a reason to sell but who require some effort and skill to identify.My favorites are #TiredLandlords, namely owners who have filed an eviction lawsuit against their non-paying tenants.Many of these folks are through being in the rental business and are open to hearing about a way out.Even better, #TiredLandlords are ideal candidates for seller financing, since they don't need the sale proceeds to buy another house, PLUS they are already conditioned to receiving monthly payments over a period of time.

Don't think you need to buy the first property that comes your way (I did that initially...actually just sold it at a break-even after all expenses).

Are you purchasing or refinancing a property within the next six months?

My partner was on the acquisitions side of things, so he is extremely knowledgable in novations and creative ways to get the property under contract and I still have an extensive list of buyers, I have built very good relationships with from when I was doing dispositions.I am open to any thoughts on the best way to start and I am open to networking with any one to hear how you got started and what you would do differently now that you have more experience under your belt!

Hello,Is there a Real Estate Appraisal tool or application or website we could use to know and generate appraisal of a real estate property (single family home, condo, etc. ?
