I do have several S8 rentals, while they are generally performing well, there is more paperwork involved in the leasing and the strict inspections can be quite a pain. 

The asset class will be dependant on how much capital you have availabile and how much renovations you plan to perform. 2) Is there an income gap between going after 2 units as opposed to 4?

After six months of STR performance, transition to a DSCR loan or portfolio lender refi for better terms.2. 

The two WORST performers are down 85% each!  

Alternatively if they all love the deal, that's also likely a good sign.You can get a dog of a property in a crap neighborhood that will yield a 13.6% gross cap (not saying yours is), but that certainly doesn't tell the whole financial picture of how the asset will perform.

Quit expecting the tenant to 'perform' for you.
