Those qualities can be the difference between closing a deal and walking away empty-handed.What about you?

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

@Zach Howard some copy & paste advice below:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

Now all taxes are based on a super low rate you can’t fight. 

@Samuel Kim Your wife can meet the 750-hour test for Real Estate Professional Status (REPS) by actively managing your 9 rental properties, but careful planning and documentation are essential, especially with low-maintenance new construction.

We are not likely to see rates that low again in our lifetime.

Several have mentioned utilizing low down payment second home loans for qualifying.

In this type of situation, they want low interest rate with low down payment also.

Don't be afraid to go low Sunday through Thursday to get some activlty.We use Pricelabs, but only as a tool; I have to override it continuously.
