@Jeff SkinnerRecommend 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?

Since this approach relies primarily on true documentation rather than estimates, it is typically the most accurate.

The better value add deals will typically be off-market. 3.

These are what we call "A-class" markets—areas with strong fundamentals, high demand, and typically excellent long-term appreciation.

Sub to deals are risky for the buyer and typically provide little to no value for the seller. 

As you and I know, a quad would be sold typically to an investor. 

Personal loans are typically shorter term maybe up to 5 years.

They usually sell for a really attractive price because investment property financing is (obviously) difficult, somewhat limiting the buyer pool to owner-operator small business owners (who in turn are typically great clients, as well).

The average company only survives for ten years, while even large companies typically last just 18 years.
