Have you decided on a target market that you plan on investing in yet?

My team and I are wholesalers who focus on finding rent-ready properties under 100k (typically in popular section 8 regions).

When investing in an off-market deal, is it better to purchase properties vacant or is it still a good idea to purchase a property even with paying tenants inside of it? 

We went to go see a house that is below market value however, the house needs quite some work. 

Looking ahead to my next project, do you have any advice or resources for finding off market deals? 

They are zoning and land use regulations, accessibility, environmental factors, market analysis, topography and terrain, utilities and services, neighbourhood characteristics, restrictions and opportunities, development feasibility, financial analysis etcetera.

We have also started building a base of past guests, where we market discounts during the week (they opted in), and have had a couple bookings from that.

Research local market rates to determine how much more you can charge; often, Airbnb properties can command 20-50% higher than traditional leases, but this varies by location and demand.

@Michael KaminskiIf your existing home is on the market the bank could do a traditional bridge loan which is short term and gives you time to sell your home - just want to make sure you have plenty of equity that when it sells it can pay off that loanWhat state you in ?

In the Jackson, MS market, it would get a home that would rent around $1,400 a month.
