Spokane's got some solid investment potential, especially as you balance cash flow with long-term appreciation.As you get rolling, a few tips from the lending side:For STRs: Make sure you understand how lenders evaluate short-term rental income (many use projected rents or require historical income—depends on the loan type).For multifamily (2-4 units): House hacking with FHA or conventional financing can be a killer way to live for cheap and build equity fast.Always structure your financing with future scalability in mind (e.g., avoid using up your owner-occupied slots too early if you plan to keep growing).Glad you're here and soaking up wisdom.
