I’m relocating from Raleigh, NC to Dallas for work and looking to line up my next house hack.

Looking to avoid home inspectors that do minimum standards of practice and's will check every single detail.

Hey Carter, having worked for a relocation company I find that property managers charging first month's rent is one of the biggest ways they fail to secure the reservation.

Hey everyone,I’ve been noticing more investors shifting toward medium-term rentals (MTRs) — especially with cities tightening STR regulations and longer leases getting squeezed by slower rent growth.It seems like the 3–6 month rental space (travel nurses, relocations, contract workers) is offering a nice balance of cash flow and stability — without the constant turnover of short-term stays.For those already in this space:How are you structuring leases (furnished vs. semi-furnished)?

They’re relocating out of town and would like to sell by the beginning of the year.Here are the key details:Current rent: $1,850/month (tenant is month-to-month, wants to stay)Market rent estimate: $2,200–$2,350/monthTenant history: Has been there for about a year; was paying $2,150 at their prior rental, so an increase to $2,000+ should be manageable.Seller’s situation: They owe about $156,000 on the property and want to net around $100,000 after all taxes and fees.Existing mortgage rate: 3.5%Wholesaler offer: $287,000My position: I just bought a fixer-upper, so most of my cash is tied up, but I can access around $100,000 from a HELOC at 6.5% (15-year draw / 15-year repayment).Question:Is there a way to creatively structure a deal that allows me to leverage the seller’s existing low-interest mortgage — even though it’s not officially assumable?

Estrada: A good friend who has relocated suggested the following zip codes: 15212  15214  15233.I am also actively looking for next investment, so happy to continue the conversationGenerally don't want to go based off zip codes in Pittsburgh.

People aren’t relocating the way they were just a few years ago.  

The demand for MTRs in Austin has been quite steady, especially with travel nurses, contractors, and people relocating for tech jobs.

Relocated to NYC and selling real estate here. 

However, to enter another state's market, you need a local presence, which requires some investment in relocation.
