Plan to rent the property by the month, targeting traveling nurse/Dr. 

Majority of the renters on there are travel nurses which helps with the tenant quality (in my opinion). 

Well, this is a wonderful thread.All I can really contribute with enough experience to be absolutely sure of what I say: if you live on the coasts and your spreadsheet tells you your best passive returns over the long haul are going to be in the Rust Belt in cheap rentals, then your spreadsheet needs to be looked at by someone with a lot more experience in cheap Rust Belt rentals than you have.My own take on the musings here of why everyone wants to quit their job these day and its possible connection to young people and their participation trophies, their possible work-ethic failings, moral turpitude, contemptible world outlook, lack of grit, et hoc genus omne...yeah, I know I don't know squat about all that.

Somewhere close to GA would be good to commute, in case if we have to make a travel to see the actual property.

When you are willing to cover your mouth with a handkerchief and step over land mines to see if the layout works for a LTR you know you're a real estate investor 😁 lolI've seen it all and smelt it all.Just haven't found a dead person yet in a property heheFunny thing is, having travelled a lotSome cultures consider animalistic smells attractive.Even aphrodisiacs.Personally, I love me some niche perfumes and have always bought the heavy Middle Eastern Oud scents.Repulsive when first applied but give it a few minutes and it blends into the skin making it sweet, sour and woody lolMaybe cat piss after some time smelling it would also blend in with our olfactory senses like it does with the other cultures hehehehe 🙈   

Many many many traveling professionals travel solo.

But it's cheap.

A number of people looking for a place in Detroit, are looking for something cheap.

Compare that to hard money at 10-12 and 3-4 points and you can see, this has been very cheap money to scale.

If you’re scaling or exposed doing BRRR or flips you might get a cheap term life policy.
