My experience has been good with renting to travel nurses. They are very low maintenance in my experience. Its very hard to analyze these because of the lack of data. I have seen properties up on furnished finder for a while without being rented out. My vacancy has been like 3 days out of the last 9 months. 

I have a property manager for mine but the upkeep should not be too difficult. You may have to have a cleaner go in there once every three months or so and the lawn will be on you. Be sure to factor bills such as electrical, water, wifi, etc. to make sure the numbers still work. Also look at the competition on furnished finder, you will want to be a little lower than what everyone else is at to minimize vacancies. 

I have not done a subject to deal yet so take this with a grain of salt, but there should be a way to foreclose on the property or deed the property back to you. I believe it would have to be written into the initial contract though. 

Thanks for posting this review, I have been thinking about joining this community but it seems pretty expensive. I know its probably a lot of value but I dont have that much liquid. Do they give you connections to PML to bridge the equity gap in sub to? 

If you want to make sure it is maintained well, I would put the cost into the rent and then get it maintained. I wouldnt expect a tenant to take real good care of the grass and leaves. 

Thats great! The best step is to take action. I feel its best to keep buying while waiting on a killer deal because you run the risk of waiting forever. The path that most real estate investors take are with small base hits not homerun deals! Good luck and I hope that yall get the ball rolling! 

I'd call more HML. You can market the property as whatever it qualifies for. I think it needs duct work as well to be considered livable square footage. If you are solid on the numbers, I would flip it!

Wow, looks like a great flip! The bigger the renovation the better profit. Nice job!

 Hey, Taylor. Super curious, what updates does Redfin do well, specifically? Perhaps you can fav a property and any update to that listing gets immediately sent to your email? Other?

I have a search set for temple, TX which is the market I’m in, and anything within my criteria is put at the top of the list. Every time a property drops the price, comes back on the market, or goes under contract i see it at the top of the list. Other apps I feel like I have to scroll down until I get to the property.

Sheesh, that seems a bit steep. I had mold in some cabinets below my sink and it ended up being significantly cheaper to just replace all of the cabinets. Also when I had an inspector look at it, he said that I could get it done for like 100 if I do it myself but a mold remediation company was trying to charge me $3700. Yours looks like it is a bit more work but I would definitely do some research before spending that type of $
