I'm unable to come up with a solid solution here (adding a separate gas meter is too expensive.) 

A lot of investors based in markets like California and New York are choosing to purchase their investments OOS in the Midwest because of the affordability and numbers making more sense.

And buyers simply cannot afford to add to their DTI due to the lack of affordability and looming employment issues over our head.No one will sell, unless they are forced to.

I’m noticing that rent rates are surprisingly high compared to the somewhat competitive and affordable housing pricing.Single-family homes, some new construction are going for mid 300’s and rent is usually $2500 or higher.

Appreciation would allow us to get out with a modest profit, but I’ve posed going Section 8 via the Affordable Housing website to my business partner.

Memphis has a pretty affordable housing market and tends to offer solid rental yields. 

It's very very affordable and well worth the investment.
