With the recent shifts in policies towards remote work among many of Seattle's biggest tech employers, it seems that there might be a bigger opportunity going forward to offer furnished rentals that really cater to "digital nomads" looking to work in beautiful/interesting locations (with high-speed, dependable internet, a good work station, and probably other amenities).

To calculate ARV, you look at the recently sold homes, the pending homes, and the for sale homes in the immediate area.In a market that is shifting like we are in today, it is even more important to look at "pending" and "for sale" listings.A home in the neighborhood may have recently sold for $500k.

I'm excited to get into this business, but I sure don't want to put myself in a bad spot given the litigious nature of today's society… it only takes that one tenant to make your life a living nightmare, and risking everything I already have is not part of my business model! 

A small shift or correction in the market can put you in the negative.
