I'm seeing 5 bedroom houses for sale around ~$200K. Most definitely would cash flow. Would just want to understand rental demand in that market. I'm from Iowa City and a 5 bedroom place could rent for $3k. 

At that price point and that large of a house, you’ll most likely be doing student rental housing due to proximity to Kansas State University. Sure it can be great cash flow but are you interested in rented to 4-6 college students? Then it may be a good fit for you. In that scenario, PM experienced in that rental group would be key.

Was a bedside ICU nurse full time for 1.5 years. Went PRN in the beginning of 2021. That was mainly to transition into becoming a full time real estate agent. But I am a investor as well. 2 long term rentals, 1 air bnb, & 1 self storage facility all in MO. (Have another self storage facility in escrow) Will likely purchase a new personal home this year and turn my current one into another STR. This will put me at my financial freedom number at 26 years old. You can definitely make it happen in 5 years! As Greg stated above, you will need to start putting some offers out even if they don't 100% meet your numbers. You will learn so much from doing the first one and the 2nd and 3rd become that much easier to facilitate. I'd also see if you can switch to PRN as a NP somewhere in South Florida - may be less stressful of a transition to fully getting out of the nursing profession.

Aloha,

My name is Dairius. I am an out of state investor looking for team members in the KC, MO area. I focus on the BRRRR strategy looking for distressed homes to add value to and create positive cash flow.


I am in need of assistance finding recommendations for real estate agents and property managers

Thank you for your time!


Mahalo,

Dairius

Dairius - happy to chat! I actually work with a handful of Hawaii investors currently and helped them purchase 5-6 houses in 2021 and most of those were BRRRR properties.
