Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Alternatives include Stessa (free) and Buildium (more robust, pricier).For testing, a phased approach is generally best.

I’ll provide an overview of the situation and my thoughts/attempts on how to structure the deal.Owner: He is in his 70s, payed off asset, appreciates the return profile of his property but is no longer interested in the management and hassle aspects.Details: Before I even asked, he mentioned that he isn’t sure where he stands in terms of depreciation and is somewhat concerned about the tax implications of selling.My initial approach to discussing creative financing: Me: "Have you heard of or would you consider seller financing?

Aside from educating yourself, the next steps are to honestly assess yourself and see where you best fit into the equation and to build sponsor relationships because these will be very important for you as you start out.If you determine that you're best suited for the "finding money" part, then the content approach is a good way to get your name out there. 

At the same time, I believe it’s important that we approach this situation calmly and constructively, as we both share the goal of resolving it efficiently and fairly.I did find your email to be pushing and impatient, which I didn’t appreciate.

Hey @Vhernadette Sasing, with your high income and limited time, a solid approach might be investing in cash-flowing assets that are low maintenance, like passive multifamily syndications, or exploring online businesses with recurring revenue models (e.g., SaaS, subscription-based e-commerce). 

.- We have busy but well paying jobs and don't like to spend time in building sweat equity (BRRR, flip), so will take a slightly low maintenance approach and buy relatively newer properties in B class neighborhoods and use property management for day-to-day operations.Goal:- To get to $10K/month net profits with real-estate (today's currency) in 15 years when we plan to retire.

Your scattered approach is going nowhere fast (analysis paralysis) and is highly likely to result in someone taking advantage of you:(Recommend:1) Figuring out what investment approach suits your skills & risk tolerance2) Determining where in the US to apply your chosen approach3) Learning everything you can about that market4) Networking & building contacts & team in the market5) Doing a "test" investment in that market to make sure your expectations are met6) Investing more if your expectations are met.-- If not, go back to step #1 as you many have chosen the wrong approach!

They use more of a flat fee approach.
