I'm  relying on them to do exactly what they said they would be doing, and I'm a bit impatience since our money is not doing much.

You don't want to rely on the tenant to pay it because you can have some serious problems if they fail.When you research a property as a potential investment, you should count all the expenses. $250 HOA fee is a pretty big one to miss.

I don’t rely on Airbnb.  

@Mehraan MoosaMy apologies, I thought I relied thank you!

When looking at out of state investing, it really depends on how much you would like to rely on someone else.

Heavier ones got more per sq foot.We dial it in a bit more now to tighten up numbers so we don't rely on sq foot numbers.

I want the churn of doing loan after loan right now, where as another investor might want more of a set it and forget it model to lending because they rely on the monthly payments to help cover their own living expenses.

I guess others might say its better to save your life's time and if they come asking you might just have to pay some extra tax.I do my own bookkeeping and don't rely in important bank and credit card statements. 

That said, you should focus on building a database of your own that you dont have to rely on incorrect data sources like CoStar.James Storey, CCIM

For a large house this can be as much as 20k a year that needs to come off the projections.I don't know the Upstate NY market to tell you if it's a good deal, but make sure you are relying on information other than just AirDNA.
