Those remote flips and high cash flow rentals are so tempting on paper, but they rarely go well in reality. 

With a 4-unit building, that’s a very high customer concentration.

I highly encourage everyone to view the property before putting money down, but that's not ideal for many of them, so I do allow them to rent "sight unseen," but I am very open with them to ensure they don't show up and back out.1.

I would highly encourage paying a GC to walk deals out the gate, have them give a scope of work so you can see what items costs.

Tenants in Brooklyn tend to stay a minimum of 4-5 years in NYC due to high costs of moving.  

If you meet that requirement, I highly recommend it. 

., Richmond, and Detroit led rent increases, while Austin and Raleigh saw year-over-year declines due to high supply.

Cleveland is great for that high cash-flow.

Underwriting is highly overrated by new investors.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.
