We have owned 14 SF rentals and 4 apartment complexes totaling near 1,000 units, and over 17 year period we have been sued exactly once.We had a 350lb resident that missed the bottom step of the staircase, fell and hurt himself. 

RE used to be so foreign to me until I went to a RichDad event I was totally mesmerized by the idea that I could possibly... own RE!

I made the layout more user friendly, added a whole wall of closets in the main bedroom, totally gutted kitchen and bath.

We have 3 rental properties that produce 8k monthly in total on average.

After renovation rents would be 1900-2000$ so about 4,000$ total rent for both units.

During the Maverick Investment Group webinar, ABC Baltimore made the following guarantees that were also in our final contract with ABC Baltimore-1) If the rehab takes longer than 120 days, the seller (ABC Baltimore) will pay us a rental guarantee of $1400 per month.2) If the house after rehab is completed appraises for less than our total purchase price of $106,000 then the seller will buy the house back.Assured by these guarantees in the contract, we signed the contract for $106,000.

I totally get where you're coming from—finding deals that pencil here in the Portland/Beaverton area is tough, especially with the high cost of living and interest rates.One approach that’s been working for some investors locally is exploring opportunities with mid-term rentals (MTRs) or hybrid MTR/STR setups.

@Matthew Mclean It's totally your call but my advise is to read the contract that they'll make you sign.

Meaning, 80% of the total value. 

So while you may get several numbers for an individual, not all numbers will still be active for that person so the total accuracy rate will go down.
