Quote from @Noel Coleman: I walked a property today for a flip with a contractor who I really liked and he seemed like he is really knowledgeable.

Target ReturnsWhile target returns are crucial, these should be discussed only with investors—not brokers or others helping you find deals.Sample Investment CriteriaHere’s an example of well-defined CCC:Location: Primary and secondary cities in the Southeast with population growth.Type & Class: Class C garden-style or walk-up workforce housing with repositioning opportunities.Age: 1980s construction or newer (case-by-case for older).Price: $5M–$12M, requiring $1.5M–$3M in funds.Size: 100+ units.Cap Rates: Market rates.Roof Type: Pitched roofs preferred.Value-Add: Opportunities for improvements or better management.Why This MattersBy creating crystal clear criteria, you:Avoid wasting time on deals that don’t align with your goals.Build trust with brokers and partners by demonstrating a focused investment strategy.Increase your chances of finding deals that meet your financial and operational objectives.I'll be posting each chapter as I go through them so you can follow along from my notes and we can discuss different strategies.

I work with a turnkey provider in Little Rock, and they are offering a 5.99% on all of their properties, even the new construction.

They offer a $10K repair fund to fix damages in addition to SD plus warranty for appliance repair etc.I have no say in whom they choose to move in, whether there are animals, limit on # of occupants etc. they reserve right to inspect property so i have no idea if they can tell me to remodel, paint etc.does this make sense i have a vacancy coming up in October (bad rental timing).

As an out of state investor, am looking to work with wholesalers, agent or bird dog who can walk the ground .

Caring about the quality of the housing you offer and the way you treat tenants, does more for tenancy success than caring about their source of income (assuming it is legal and verifiable, which S8 is). 

I can offer both conventional (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac) and government (FHA, VA, USDA) options to help make it happen! 

Banks who offer construction financing tend to be 75-80% LTC and alternative/hard money lenders will sometimes offer higher LTC leverage than that.
