Overall we have vastly more “good” tenants, and the law allows you to get rid of the bad tenants and maintain a desirable place to live for the good tenants who you want to keep.High-maintenance <=> High-Return: Those prior two points drive what I meant when I said the cash flows and NOI should be about double what they are on a “vanilla” MF (multi-family) purchase at the same price point, but it can be a high-maintenance proposition to manage the screening on the front end, the day-to-day management issues, the more frequent turnover and vacancies, and the frequency of needed court filings to get the keys back from a tenant when somebody is not being a good neighbor to your other tenants in the lodging house.Bottom line: We think we were right on point five years ago when we identified that SROs fill a critical niche that is in extremely high demand.

First of all - most people (including real estate investors) are lazy and will always gravitate towards promises of quick returns / passive income promises.But also - what you are describing is something that AirDNA does extremely well and automated - it can be a little pricy, but way way more effective and accurate to do this with that tool - highly recommended

It's extremely inconvenient for both the new tenant and myself.

On the otherhand, it the property is overpriced and the wholesaler doesn't know how to present it with realistic repairs, ROI, etc. they'll have to work extremely hard to find naive buyers.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.PM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

It was a nightmare with people sharing amenities and complaining one of the parties were being too loud, or drunk, etc.Not exactly comparing apples to apples but that turned me off to trying to do any more shared spaces. 

We got the entire overage as the payoff on the loan was over $100,000To those reading this who are newer to the space - this is extremely rare and does not happen often and probably for many will never happen.

Nobody talks about headache factor or the stress from the extremes of RE enough in my opinion. 

I've been looking at single family home prices and rental prices in Austin TX and its suburban areas, and it feels like it's extremely unrealistic to find something that passes the 2% rule.

I understand dead money but with high interest rates and putting minimal money down or re-fying leaving 80% LTV the margins on SFR's is extremely tight.
