@Sakib KhanRecommend 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?

@Blair Ross Jr depends on how much experience you have with investing in rental properties.

This is how banks verify property owners maintain insurance.

If the property is vacant, you will attract a larger pool of buyers as not everyone looking for a house wants to use it as a rental.

And for any who question how legit my info is on sec8 Payment Standards, here ya-go, the current 2024 rates in this area.

I'm thinking about buying a property in NC.

To succeed, focus on properties in high-demand neighborhoods like Pecan Grove or Aliana, and ensure your cash flow analysis accounts for high property taxes, potential HOA restrictions, and flood insurance costs.
