Henry Stockdale Looking to buy first property and seeking advice

In some areas, the ROI ends up being more stable than pure nightly STR.At a $250k purchase price, I’d pay close attention to:• Local STR regulations and enforcement trends• True occupancy patterns (not just projected revenue)• Seasonality dips• Insurance + turnover costs in that zip code• Your exit strategy if you ever pivot to long-termOut-of-state can look stronger on paper, but it adds layers operationally unless you already have reliable boots on the ground.If your goal is scaling, I’d focus more on operational predictability and repeatable systems over chasing the highest projected ROI.Happy to share a little more of what I’m seeing in ATL from the operations side if it helps.

Strong follow-up (most contracts come after multiple touches)Direct-to-seller still works well here, but only when the list itself is solid — probates, pre-probates, tax delinquents, code violations, absentee owners, etc. tend to convert better than broad high-equity lists.Driving for Dollars + skip tracing is still effective too, especially in older neighborhoods around Hampton Roads.If you’d like, I’m happy to share what types of lists and strategies investors in your area are having success with — just from my experience supporting people doing flips/new construction.Curious — which areas of Hampton Roads are you targeting most right now?
