Bettendorf - Good Deals on MLS?
Question for Quad City area (Bettendorf, Davenport, Rock Island, Moline) investors - do you believe good deals can be found on the MLS and/or FSBO for a single family rental? I'm looking specifically in Bettendorf for a single family rental. I've started with MLS and FSBO. Haven't attempted other approaches at finding a deal, yet. I am patient and doing this on the side (not looking to launch a full-time real estate business).
Also, what is a realistic vacancy rate for a Bettendorf house? I've got my spreadsheet set-up to account for 10% vacancy.
Ideally, I'd like to find a fixer upper at a good price and utilize my dad's construction skills and QC network to rehab it into a nice rental.
Appreciate the time and guidance from more experienced investors.
