We are considering a STR option for this property for the summer months due to its proximity to the beach.

Hi All, Been focused on sourcing off market industrial warehouse deals in the Phoenix area, but we've been digging up a few deals that are too small for our PE partners, specifically multibay industrial properties that are under 15k Sq/ft. 

I would recommend getting in touch with some local wholesalers that may be able to source properties that fit your criteria.  

Does anyone see any options for me here?

-connect with folks sourcing off market deals and start reviewing those. 

Then, be aggressive about negotiating with the seller two options:1) Property vacant at close - you pay original agreed price2) Property NOT vacant at close - you pay orig price LESS an aggressive amount based upon above.Great advice - you should be embarrassed about how low the offer is you make!

I've made it my goal that by April 1st, I would start taking actionable steps towards sourcing and landing deals I can take to potential sellers/investors.My question is: What makes a "good" deal and/or how do I know when I've come across a "good" deal?

Now the real estate commission here has instructed agents NOT to measure, but to just use the best source of info that we have available like public records and fill out the square footage disclosure stating where we got the square footage info from.

I don't know anyone who does...there are plenty of online options and you need to choose one based on the screening criteria.

I would appreciate any advice on figuring out what we could charge for rent so that we can decide if selling or renting is our best option.
