By getting involved in the community and building relationships with long-term residents, you’ll stay top-of-mind for distressed sellers.I hope this helps!

There are some locations to stay away from but almost every single sub market of KC has value and increasing rents.

I'm starting to look for team members so I know exactly what blocks to stay away from.

I am a Broker in California though and still on the Oregon DRE s  e mail mailing list I like to stay up on current laws since we are home builders in the Portland Metro market..

(aka the BRRR method).But, if you stay on the sidelines, acting fearful and not greedy, you will reap the benefits of neither.Again I do think we see an early pullback in 2025, in the first 100 days.

I stay away from flooded properties and those in flood zones.

And Chula Vista or Escondido are great areas for first-timers who want to stay near SD but reduce entry costs.Network at local meetups like “Beers and Deals” - The connections you’ll make there can open up off-market opportunities.Where did you end up starting starting - SD, or did you end up in nearby markets to get your first win?

It won't stay that way forever, so enjoy it while it lasts

We have a couple of exterior photos.Every STR we have stayed at without exterior photos was dumpy.
