We are having a great time connecting, getting to know each other, sharing our properties, asking questions and offering advice and resources.

It took a while to get right - but we've had consistent success using a mix of research, mindfulness towards our neighbors/neighborhoods, conversations with cities, legal discussions, and as a worse case fallback is converting the home back to a single-family property and where we offer to manage it for a discounted price since it is a tough situation for all involved (this is very rare).Hope that answers your questions/concerns - let me know if I can provide any additional info as well.

On market deals are tough, but there are great deals on the MLS and you also do not have to offer what is listed - if you see a property that works out with a lower offer price, you can simply put in an offer.

To make an informed offer: You must know gross potential revenue, recent collections, and landlord provided utilities to make an offer.

When interviewing brokers, you can confirm the technology brokers offer for market research and property evaluation.

Should I offer money to tenant to move?

Some properties can be in the pre-foreclosure phase for months but once an auction date is set you have a deadline that you need to keep in mind.

The house will cash flow but the property comes with a great newly built barn with a slab and all.Now when my brother and I both left for college my parents had no use for a golf simulator that we had in our garage so they offered for me to use it at a property.This would for sure add a lot of value to bookings but I cant decide if the $50 - $100 a night or so increase (just a estimate) is a better option than spending the 40-60k to turn the barn into an ADU / separate dwelling to add cash flow and equity to the property. 

It's ok, I have enough wiggle room to offer 1800 and get this rented soon(ish).

I am planning to buy a 4bd 3ba house as a primary residence and will be applying for a pre-approval soon.
