Still ended up being great due to the location.

Maybe if you had a good, secure location to store things you could pre-order stuff you think you might need for your next project(s) and stockpile it.

It’s located in Midwest City Oklahoma, rent for this house works easily be $850/month.

As I am new to this and looking for cashflow using rentals, one key aspect of this investment is to ensure that the unit rents out quickly and while I do understand that cash flow to begin with might not be attractive, it can be a good investment in the long run if the location is right(as appreciation also kicks in).

@Ronald RohdeThe property is located in TX, near Houston if that matters.

@Tove Fox hope you find this copy & paste useful:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Also, it often helps to connect with a local agent/do extensive due diligence on renovated/new construction properties to see what the property may sell for or appraise for (if doing BRRRR method) as that can impact the price you should pay.

Weather differs depending on where properties are located and even snow accumulation within the same geographic area will vary year to year.

Need a home, it needed work, price and location where pretty great.

@Sang Kim- thanks for clarifying you are trying to get a commercial loan ...this is a  completely different product than a home loan ...You still should be able to  locate and obtain a good commercial loan  without  having to pay any fees upfront  ( other than possibly paying for the appraisal after the  loan has been  approved )
