Thanks Nicholas, I appreciate the reply and info. Unfortunately house hacking is not an option for me at the moment but I will look more into the BRRRR method.

Hi there, I just wanted to come on here and see how everyone is able to find properties currently that will cash flow?

I am just starting out my real estate journey and I am looking for long term rentals at around 200-300k. I've done research on different areas that are supposed to be good for cash flow, however, when I run analyses with the rental property calculator on homes in these areas, none of them are cash flowing within the first few years. 

This is honestly pretty disappointing and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if people are unable to find cash flowing properties on Zillow, Redfin, and the MLS during this point in time because of interest.

Any advice on what I should do to get into this field with cash flowing properties or if I should change my strategy or look off market? And if so, how do I do that?

Thanks!

Does anyone know the source of BiggerPockets data and how frequently it's updated?
