In my area, I see a big need for a " military friendly" resource in the real estate market. 

Let's assume that the neighborhood is a C class and the median income of the city is greater than 3X of the market rent.Here are some of the considerations I've come up with so far:- Units are in need of renovation and capex is too high or not available- Unit quality is not the same as market - Seller is worried about losing tenants due to increase- Vacancy rates are high or filling units have been difficult- Rent increase would take multiple increases over multiple lease periods to get to market rate if seller is trying to retain the same tenant- Seller inherited property and just want to liquidate- Seller needs to liquidate quickly (financial burden, sickness, quick exit from land-lording)It seems like I might be missing a warning sign about a deal if they are selling with current rents that are under market; but again, this seems to be most of the properties I've underwritten.And in the same vein, what should I be worried about when purchasing a deal with under market rent with the intention of raising them after purchase. 

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

Regular tenants may have more of a support system when they have bad financial luck.

Happy to send over some resources on why Columbus is a great real estate market to invest in.

This is a picture was taken 2 days ago by my contractor in front of my property.So long story short Derek, there are more than just financial returns as to why people invest.  

It is very high risk investing now, both financially and legally.

There are plenty other resources but the first is to educate

We have the time and resources to purchase about 2-3 properties a year. 

Just make sure to look into the HOA’s financials, rules, and rental policies before buying.
