Other option I’m thinking of is investing in a higher priced market with a potential for good appreciation.

Price your apartment effectively so that it reflects market value. 2.

looking for gross margin on flips, Brrr’s, price point pretty irrelevant. 

I look at population growth, housing prices, etc.

If i could chime in and help in the search:be sure to find an accountant who is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee-wise.

I think the asking price may be more than if it was based on LTR since cash flow will be more with MTR/Airbnb.  

The purchase price is about $350k, but the assumable mortgage only has about $250k remaining.

Lower price point, known for cash flow, and from living here my whole life and knowing what I do now, this market is only growing.

While consumer prices came in hotter than expected (for the 3rd month in a row) and markets roiled on the news, producer/wholesale prices came in lower MoM , coincidently by the same amount. (.1%), and +2.1% YoY.

You'll want to be sure your sales price - your land development costs leave enough net profit for it to make sense.
