I have targeted absentee owners with high equity, homes owned longer that 4 years and etc. 

DSCR loans, while still a relatively new product, continue to expand in use and popularity for investors looking to achieve financial freedom through real estate.

While there are several reasons why you can be targeted for an IRS audit (including running for an office, it seems), the most common reason is the IRS computer finding enough "red flags" in your numbers. 

I'd be happy to discuss this further and explore how we can help you achieve your real estate investment goals.Please feel free to reach out at your convenience.

@Tim Phillips I would recommend looking somewhere that's affordable, in a landlord friendly market and of course that meets the goals you're looking to achieve.

Have you achieved them?

I would first find a market that is showing signs of market growth oriented towards the goals you're trying to achieve.

The focus on achieving a higher sale price can sometimes blind sellers to the risks involved, which savvy buyers may exploit to negotiate highly favorable terms.From a seller's standpoint, offering financing can be a smart strategy if approached carefully.

Long-term Investment Value: Over time, demand for properties with more amenities (like the extra half bath) could increase, which may help you achieve better returns, even if the immediate ARV bump is minimal.Overall, it may not drastically change the ARV, but for rental purposes, it could enhance the property's desirability and boost cash flow.

Im not a college rental investor, but if it were up to me I would target an area that is safe, clean, high traffic, and a large university.
