I recommend establishing a thorough and well-structured screening process.

STRs are super popular in Charleston, but there's a lot of regulation now that's only getting worse, as well as some saturation issues.HOI costs will be higher east of I95 in SC for the most part.

The rehab is the equity in the deal protecting the seller if the property is held for any length of time.

SOME investors are repeat clients, generally a well-planned out BRRRRRRR (too many Rs?) 

they can usually give you a pretty good estimate.and depending on the situation there may be tax implications as well.

I am Wholesaler, Flipper and Creative Subto/Creative Financing Investor/Buyer/Seller as well as a Realtor in Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Palm Beach and Bay Area.

Wells Fargo conventional loan with a 25% down payment.

It’s wise to do this well before you sell the property.

Rentals near Fort Sam Houston have also done well for me over the past 4 years with STR and we are seeing long term rents increase dramatically there as well.

I'm also going to add some outdoor(deck) space and update the kitchen with new cabinets and countertops(modernize) as well as take out the carpet and put down lvp flooring.
