@Bart George, @Jonna Weber could help you better than I with purchase price expectations.  Finding the property, is always the key element.  But it helps to know what you are looking for.  The Bench area of Boise isn't far from BSU and has a lot of older homes with duplex conversions.  These often make great house hacking properties.  Good luck with you search.

Welcome @Bart George.  If you would like some ideas of rental rates for LT and airbnb, happy to help.  However, I think @Elizabeth Wilson and @Jonna Weber are on the right tract suggesting house hacking.  Buy a duplex and have your tenant pay the mortgage while you live in the other side for free.  It's a great way to start building RE wealth.

Hi Lisa, I'm disappointed to have to miss this meeting!  I look forward to attending in July,

Claire

You're welcome @Jen Harwood.  Glad for you that you will be getting more rent.

@Jen Harwood, I just read through the communication string.  3/2 houses are renting closer to $1300 + range so the prices noted above may be a little low.  Do an Internet search "houses for rent in (zip)"  You will be able to see on a map what is available in the immediate area and the prices being asked.  That should give you a pretty good idea.

Thanks for the mention @Cody Stone!  Happy to help where I can @Jen Harwood.

@Ashley S Brown, just show up.  See you there!

@Ashley S Brown, you may want to attend the BP meeting tomorrow evening at Cafe Ole Restaurant & Cantina, 210 N Milwaukee St.  @Jonna Weber is hosting.  There will be investors there who would be happy to share good information.  6:30pm.

@Caleb Bradley, I wish you well with your move to Boise and search for MF opportunities.  If you can bring your visit up by a few days you could join us at our BP meeting.  It is being held on May 2d at 6:30pm at Cafe Ole on Milwaukee @Jonna Weber will be hosting.

Feel free to reach out when you're in town if you'd like some guidance on current rent rates.

Going to be a great meeting.  So much happening in the real estate world right now.  Looking forward to catching up with BPers in person.
