If the owner wants 700K and the house is worth 700K, where is the profit?
I wonder if Sober Living rentals are the next wave after short term rental?
Quote from @Ryan OBrien:

Look at the stock price. Ouch! 

Almost everyday it's down. 

Here is list of their properties for sale in the Denver, Colorado area. 90% have had a price reduction.

I wonder if black rockor Black Stone will take them over. Probably not. They're just going to let them sink, and then move in to scavenge the carcass. 


Wow this is crazy.

@Luke Ache Anything on the MLS is not going to cash flow much or will be negative. I have been tracking the Huntsville market for a year now and its been hard finding anything on the MLS. I am looking for my first property and I don't think I will find it here. Might have to look farther away to see if it will cash flow.

Quote from @Carlos Ptriawan:

Huntsville Alabama if you're tech guy. This is the only tech place that's like Bay Area 18 years ago.

If you prefer to enjoy lifestyle then Hawaii outside Oahu.

If you just want cash flow then Indiana. Any city :p

Huntsville, doesn't really have a lot of duplexes.
Quote from @Nikki Yankowski:

Thank you for sharing. I saw those two 4 plexes by Sparkman and 72 just list for the 400s. First time I've seen something like that on MLS.

Post note: I am hearing rumors about the the city of Huntsville passing a zoning law against SF purchases for investments. I haven't had time to follow up on this, but if you do please let me know!  

Where are you hearing that from?

I was wondering if a 4/2 with no garage is worth more than a 3/2 with a garage?

Almost all other houses in the neighborhood had a garage.

I am looking at a house that has a converted garage. The house need some work and was wondering what I would do with the converted space.

How will the converted space work with insurance and zoning?

I am not sure what you are asking. You are trying to compare 2 different strategies that have their pros and cons. Then you are adding more complication by trying to compare 2 different locations. Other things you should think about is are you looking for cash flow play or appreciation?

I am trying to get my first LTR in the Huntsville market and its pretty hot here. Why not reinvest the money back into the market you know?
