@Dennis Bragg, how did you factor improvements and market appreciation into the buy-back price?

@Makani Donaldson it all depends on your investment goals.If you buy a Class A rental, it'll usually have negative cashflow, which will be hopefully offset with appreciation and better tenants.If you buy a CLass C or D rental, it should have pretty good cashflow because you may not realize much in appreciation and you'll have a lot more problems finding good tenants.

I have helped a lot of first time investors learn the process and successfully buy their first investment property. 

Just make sure you are fluid with this info on each property so you do not buy wrong.
