I have not reviewed the 2024 lists from various sources that will come out soon.    

Review all leases and match them with the rent roll and ledger.

For me if someone has a negative review I typically consider something else, if its positive then I would continue to do my own research but do not really go off of others.

I use a checklist to review the property before move-in. 

Quote from @Vicki Karpovich: Thank you for reviewing these options so clearly. 

You can really tell that on reviewing the comps with a good agent on the MLS.

I would post it here on BP and let people review it and provide some feedback.

You can also search Google and read reviews.

Investors buy in an HOA because properties are cheap, but then they quickly realize Nazis and busy-bodies run the HOA.You can try to build a coalition of owners and fight back against the charge, but it's unlikely to change.

Anything they don't provide I'd for sure get and review before due diligence is over
