You'll have better luck analyzing a few properties a month from investors, wholesalers and realtors that can find you off market deals.

@Chase AlexanderRecommend 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?

You want to look for like/kind SOLD properties to compare so, single family to single family and multi to multi (2-4). 

I don't understand why someone would ask if now is a good time to invest in section 8.

@Jason MatthewsHi Jason, Welcome to the community. 

Im new to BP and excited to connect and engage in discussions here.

So this is creating more competition and more agreesive rent rates and/or concessions like 1 month free to get those vacancies filled.

Hi Willie, I think it would be best to wait until you have more capital to put down for a multi-family property. 

Alright, now that the house is locked up and the paperwork is out of the way, it’s time to get messy.

Welcome to the wholesaling business!
