In my experience, most agents aren't going to be helpful here (some exceptions).You can ballpark these things after getting some data:Rent:  use the sites  you think you're future tenant will use to find you as a landlord (Zillow, Rent.com, a big property manager in your area, Craigslist) and look for similar places in similar neighborhoods. 

In considering my next move, I'd like to know what experienced investors think about the scale-ability, sustainability, and future of vacation rentals are!

It doesn't really matter for the re-fi, but found it rather annoying and worrying if we need to 1031 this building in the future.

I think I'll try to get my start a different way, but good information for the future.

I have friends from school who had it much better than he did and have completely blown their futures by this point (we are all in our young 30's).

Since I'll be paying cash for properties in the exchange, I'll have a decent amount of equity I can pull out for future investing. 

If not, then I just won't send properties her way in the future :) @John Thedford I have a real estate license.

That's basically the missing piece I've been looking for (outside of that pot of gold that would make HML unnecessary, haha). 

Feel free to post any questions because it might help others in the future. 

Hello BP,I would like to get started on building my future through real estate.
