@Ofir R.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 personal preference for a buy and hold would be an already established area (or an area that's still gentrifying, but has already seen significant progress). 

- What metrics do you use to measure "good"Ex "Hi I'm looking to buy a single family home in Richmond TX in the $150-200k price range.

If you are just starting out, this is for you:When you buy an investment property, it is treated differently than a house you are going to live in. 

I feel as though your buy box puts you in a position for more flexibility. 

I asked which building inspector was the most thorough, wrote the most detailed reports, and which was the one he’d use if he was buying his own property.

So did you buy the $15,000 course? 

@Jaycee Greene Yeah it is easy for one to get discouraged when buying this type of project but I must say they are decent when trying to start low and build capital, that way you dont have to deal with **** properties or mediocre neighborhoods again. 

Often they like to ultimately buy their properties and will pay over market value so they don’t have to uproot the established program to stay in the home they’ve been renting.

It’s not a market where you can just buy blindly, but for investors willing to do their homework, it offers a strong mix of cash flow and appreciation.If you’re open to learning more, I’m happy to share some resources on how I’ve built my portfolio there.
