I joined the group and purchased the book earlier today.

Here is a link to it: https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/sz6udf/who_has_...Also, I received an email to review them so I clicked on their Google Reviews and saw that they had 4.8 Stars.

I'm 23, and I'm looking to purchase my first rental property this year.

@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?

It may make sense for the right purchaser to repair.

Flipping a brand new home likely wouldn’t bring much profit - especially after having to close twice when you first buy it, and later sell it.Maybe you have millions to spend and I’m just missing the big picture… but when I think of “income” I’m usually thinking “net income” after you factor in expenses, like purchase price or building costs?  

I have purchased an off-market property from an investor who now wants to sell the rest of his portfolio.

My metrics were to be all in purchase and renovation at or below 80% ARV. 

It’s all about catching their eye and making them click.
