So to say, in a year or so you can move in is 100% mortgage occupancy fraud. 

Hey all, I'm a Broker with 18.5 years of experience in the industry primarily centered around SFR and small investment properties.

There's always a spike this year as we get into the Spring selling season.

I am starting real estate school soon to get my license but here in Florida I was told I can buy as an investor without. 

And the second was that it was in a flood zone with the listing agent and seller saying it had never flooded but we were able to get confirmation that it had taken on water at least 3 times in the past year and the insurance agent for the property stated that with the flood insurance the premium would be close to $11,000 annually which meant the list price had to drop from $339,000 to less than $239,000 to make anything work.

I have gone through a few different ones over the course of 12 years.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

After 12 years in the furnished rental game, I'd say that is a pretty good sample size. 

I have a main company, that owns a bunch of LLCs, each LLC holds a single real estate asset. 1 of the LLC also acts as a management company for the entire portfolio.Now it creates a problems that with each LLC, I need to file a tax return each year. and so far I am doing them by excel copying numbers from bank statement, which is a nightmare.Quickbook online charges $24 each month in Canada, which really adds up with the number of holding LLCs. and I don't feel like what I require from it justify the cost.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history very important!
