They should be able to send you an address of a rental they own.2) If they plan on sharing a BP Calculator sheet for each and every property they send you.

My wife and I are getting close to entering the real estate market as investors, we live in Canada but are planning on entering into the US market.

If you want to go down the STR road, I'd suggest making sure the property pencils as an MTR/LTR as a back plan.

Even the type of wood floor, tile, different colors of paint, bath fixtures, lighting etcAlways give specs and be very specific as you mention, otherwise it can cost you later on down the road

HI NatanBeware of $100K SFRs unless you plan on $25K+ rehab.   

We're occupying the house and plan to keep the property for 5-6y, after which we would either move and hold it or sell it.

Basement was "finished" in that it had walls and flooring, so we completely redid and made it an actual basement.

I plan to continue self-managing this property from afar.

Unless you plan to never deal with tenants (PM skills are very valuable) it will be an eye opener for you.

I plan to purchase a few more this year.
