Welcome to BP.I am not sure on the course offerings, but @Dave Meyer's latest book, Start With Strategy, would be a good primer that goes to the question you are asking.Are you talking about an overview on all asset classes or more of a how-to on getting started and prepped to invest?

thx yea I mostly do class c single family in VA and NC.. a fair amount of section 8. thanks for the feedback 

The disappearance of the middle class is forcing many to have to rent.  

There's only a couple of these that pop up per month though so if that fits your criteria DM me as I don't post on here the buy box.

My first property, a C-Class multi-family in Houston, seemed like a great investment, but it turned out to be a money pit.

@Stuart Udis Went into more detail on why some areas are affected.I'll look into those areas, thank you. what do you mean by too much hassle, other than competition and general norm of lower-class tenants? 

Generally speaking though, this asset class can be argued to be one other most management-intensive. 

Focus on cash flow and value-add properties, such as fixer-uppers or renovations, and expand into multifamily properties for better cash flow.

I own and manage mostly class B and B+ single family homes and condos, but I have heard that evictions have ticked up in class C, that’s one of the problems with chasing cash flow is getting into class C and dealing with a tenants that are not as well qualified and higher risk of default to begin with.
