At that class of property, the turn overs are costly. 

@Isaac Terry 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?

A/B class is our jam.

Texas A & M has the Texas Real Estate Research Center so I'd imagine they would have some good courses.

We have classes in addition that we offer. 

Conversely, a new built A class SFR, in A class market of significant growth via a well laid out planned city development, great schools, area people are glamouring to move to, a-class tenants, very very low risk.

@Jordan Miller most Class A & B rental properties bought since 2021 really don't cashflow from day one.Class B will take 1-3 years to start showing cashflow.Class A, 3-5 years.Current investors keep making the mistake of looking back at deals from 5-10 years ago when prices & interest rates were both a lot lower, but NOT rental rates.

I wanted a place in a A class neighborhood in Chicago with good tenants How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

If have investment property, we are looking for relatively updated units (we are ok doing some work ourselves), class C+/B tenants, with rents either close to market rate or that can be increased.
