Would you buy a package of 13 SFHs today?

What extra precautions would you consider now when buying SFHs for buy/hold?

We have a deal of 13 SFHs with a 30% ROI after taking the following allocations:

- 21% towards repairs/vacancy/capex,

- Paying taxes and insurance

- Paying mortgage (principal and interest)

- Paying for property management

- Extras like utilities in some, grass, etc.

I may be overthinking this given the uncertainty in today’s market, but what else would you consider if you were to buy 13 SFHs today?

Very thankful,

Manny

    Great work Manuel! If they are already have tenants, you could consider a 90 day rental guarantee held in escrow at closing. Looks like you have a solid ROI though, so already good on the entry. Your strategy after you acquire the properties is where you'll probably need to build in contingencies.
