Another thing, most of the houses price history in somehow hidden in redfin \ Zillow.

I am looking for a house locate in a growing area for potential good tenants ( I will manage the property myself).

Once you've done your research and chosen a market, take action.

If you want to network or ask specific questions about your local market, go to your local real estate forum and connect with investors from your area: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/86-local-real-estate-networking5.

I doubt it would hold up legally.The cameras on the front of my house cover my driveway and you can see the front of several of my neighbors houses and front doors and driveways in the background.

You might be able to get a better yield by finding a value-add project or a BRRR type property, but the market rate stabilized is 4-6% probably.Just be careful of insurance right now, it's been going up and seems to have stabilized, but it's still all over the map depending on the specific property and who is doing the insurance.

I thought I was getting an amazing deal but what I'm ending up with is; essentially locked into closing on house where everyone expected the current tenant to leave cooperatively however, he is now planning to stay indefinitely without paying rent until getting evicted.

So, if you form in Delaware, for example, and want to flip houses in New York, you will still need to register to do business in New York.

Similar to you, I'm thinking about other strategies for off-market leads and tried direct mailers, but not sure how effective that is for multifamily.
