@David LewisRecommend 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?

Most of the time, the home warranty takes a long time to approve your repair, reach the property, and then they use low-quality materials.

Years ago it was finding quality tenants.

It depends on your financial strength, the quality of the property, how many properties you own, etc.I like to start with one significant expense and three months of vacancy.

have looked into Batchleads as well but quality of data looks comparable  Check out traceestate.com $0.08 per individual and $0.15 per LLC.

How have you identified quality contractors and kept them on pace?

I want to try and offset as much cost as possible without compromising quality so I’m looking for a GC mentor who could help me eat, breathe, sleep and wake GC lol.

I told a lot of people about this and I'm sure it got back to him as people were made aware of his character quality.  

It's acceptable as an area though the flips I saw weren't great quality.
