Quote from @Josh Otero: Hi BP community, I know you've got some crazy tenant stories and I want to hear it.I'll go first:1) I was managing a 5 story apartment building and a dog fell off the 4th floor balcony because of the owner not paying attention.

At times, we outsource as a result of time constraints or to leverage someone else's expertise.

I'd sit down with your $10k Attorney (What's this waste of time's name?

If you do a rollover from your current HSA, make sure you’re aware of any fees or time limits.

@Dominic Mazzarella Those are good points to keep in mind, and factors any investor should look at when making the decision to invest. 

I asked for a refund outside the 3 days (ridiculous time frame to give to clients but it tells you everything you need to know about the company just didn't realise on time) but I told them I didn't receive the login until the 4th day and that I am the one who requested so I would still be missing the login of wasn't for me that didn't seem to make sense to Kevin the manager there who by the way called me a week later.

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.

Quote from @Erick Pena: A "good" rental property is one that covers all expenses (mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, property management fees, and any other costs) and still leave a surplus (commonly referred to as cash flow).Calculate cash flow as: Cash Flow = Rental Income − Operating Expenses − DebtThere's much more to it, but that's the basic idea.
