@Zach Howard some copy & paste advice below:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

My husband is a high income W2 earner, and meeting active criteria would put some of our tax dollars back in our pocket.

Even though there is low inventory, interest rates are high, and many properties don't cash flow, look harder there are always deals, you just need to find/make them.

Some lenders even do as high as 1.3.

Those qualities can be the difference between closing a deal and walking away empty-handed.What about you?

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

Low LTV, 30yr fixed @4.5% personal (1)• Investment condo - new const. high end purchased w/1031 (from 20yr quad) in 2019.

But if your goal is to cashflow positive from the Day 1, you may find it very challenging due to current day interest rates, high cost of construction and the fact you won't have the efficiencies of a seasoned developer building at scale.

Funny story is my ex wife's mother went to grammar and high school with OJ.

On the flip side, if you've got a bunch of Section 8 tenants living in a building that's in a neighborhood where a lot of the tenant base has good jobs, high credit scores, and are generally reliable people, you've got the most risky tenants in that tenant base and that ain't what ya want.
