Might be for sale here on BP or for sure can probably find on Amazon/Ebay.You should also connected with @Henry Clark and https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/paultmooreIt seems like you are focusing on one property. 

An example in my experience would be a local/regional foundation with a mission that is aligned directly or indirectly with Affordable Housing AND a longer-term investment horizon with less of a focus on the financial return and more on the "social" return for the community.

Banks, particularly smaller banks who provide real estate loans are increasingly focused on their borrowers maintaining depository relationships.

As someone based in San Diego, I’ve also noticed that investors eyeing California real estate tend to focus on potential future development or expansion (especially if you have the patience to navigate local regs).

I would also focus on landlord friendly states if you are planning to rent.

Many property managers tend to focus on physical occupancy rates, but what truly matters is the economic occupancy rates—the actual rent collected.

On the RE side - I own/developed 2,000 residential units across the United States focusing on opportunistic residential acquisitions and development, including student housing conversions and luxury multifamily development.On the startup side - it is a third-party guarantor platform that expands your renter pool, increases rents and occupancy, and ultimately boosts your NOI while broadening affordable housing options for renters.

I would focus on serving the draft team so well, that they keep you.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.
