Hey Robert - Condos and apartments can be a solid entry point due to lower purchase prices and potentially lower maintenance responsibilities, especially if the HOA covers exterior upkeep.

It's not a real common concept here in DFW area, but I love it.Buyers have no downtime, no rent rate risk, lower vacancy risk, potentially instant cash flow day 1. 

Just start.Pick a good area: Look for neighborhoods with potential – something that feels right to you.Think long-term: Are you looking for steady cash flow or hoping for big appreciation down the road?

Maybe that's not "illegal" but it is potentially actionable.

But if you’re going into a 7% loan with little cashflow or appreciation potential I would look for a different buy box. 

You give vague answers to specific questions.For example, when someone asks about potential rent, and they provide enough information for you, don't respond with an extensive range.

In your case, it sounds like a similar story.. you identified a property with potential, tackled the structural work, and brought it back to life in a way that justifies a higher price.

I turned to the Diontalk Binder strategy which educates the tenants on the current price of market rents, section 8, etc, and what I could potentially earn if they were to move out ( In this case being 1500 for a 3b 1ba). they then realize this and know paying a $400 increase (36.6% Increase) would be the best option vs moving out, living in cheaper housing, or going to market rent in the area.

What qualifications do you believe you possess that would make you a good candidate to advise others on the quality, safety and performance of potential investments?

But even still, SFH can be bought on rental income with DSCR loans and having an account come with the property would definitely increase the value and income generating potential.
