Would you have to wait until the current owner moves out...in a year...if they actually leave as agreed? 

I moved from Florida to start investing in Columbus due to the same reason.

AirDNA is a real standard for this stuff, but don't forget you will compete against hotels too. 

A CERTAIN price point and product 3 bed 2 bath under 200k or whatever might be moving fast in a certain market but others are still selling at 2009 levels.Houses I am looking at locally in a certain subdivision anything 250k and under has about a 90% sell rate and moves fast.

Since there are many more listings competing on the market than in previous years, it’s crucial to prepare a listing to stand out among the rest and work to address buyer objections prior to going on market.

Unfortunately I have a tenant moving out and am looking for guidance on the process of vetting out for a new tenant.

I have never bought a property for nothing but I was able to get many many communities with nothing down and great seller financing terms.Listen to the seller, find out what their motivation is, their pain point then present them with a solution and see where it goes, when the terms make sense have the guts to move forward.

More than just a practice facility.https://www.therams.com/news/rams-announce-move-to-woodland-...

Move on.  

I grew up in the Bay Area but moved out here to invest.
