@Momar MbengueRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.When investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

Good Sponsors should have a portfolio of properties in different regions, and usually select properties rated Class-A—high quality, newer buildings with top amenities and low vacancy rates.    

They give potential buyers a visual representation of the property and help them imagine living there.To use high-quality photos, follow these tips:Hire a professional photographer or use a high-quality cameraUse natural light to highlight the property’s featuresTake pictures from different angles to give a complete view of the propertyEdit the photos to enhance their quality and appealRemember, your photos should showcase the property’s best features and make potential buyers want to see more, so ensure to capture the most unique or most appealing parts of the property.

You can calculate the difference between a 1-bed and 2-bedSTR on AirDnD...then ask yourself what feels light?

Because the lenses our folks were looking through were different for every person.

Well, there are many different brokerages out there, I would say just be sure to be very selective!

Of course, these lenders have a different risk/reward structure than the owner financing seller who has a “built in” $50k gain.The part I don’t like about doing a wrap is the personal liability the seller maintains for the underlying loan while not having control of the assets securing the loan.  

You can have the zoning permit billing statement issued and perhaps that’s what leads you to question whether you as the owner can pull the building permit but the building permit process is different. 

It almost certainly will.I'd encourage you to focus on more than just cash flow, because you most certainly have the income to "float" the difference until it does cashflow better!

Melanie,I'm really glad you made me aware of the difference in market saturation between STR and LTR in the STL market.
