I'm curious, do they care how leveraged you are?

We are a small company and take personal care of our clients.

Anyone buying buildings to flip with tenants in these areas now need to be very careful. 

I personlly dont care about prop tax's we flip everything within 6 to 9 months I am not a buy hold investor in that market nor am i looking to be one. 

The numbers you find in the news are usually for all properties combined, which tells you very little value.In 2005, we selected a specific tenant segment that has proved to be a highly reliable source of income for our clients.

For assessing demand, go to FurnishedFinder.com/stats and you can see demand data for a given city.When I was trying to determine demand for our area, I selected about 20 listings near the location I was focused on, and tracked them for several months.

I am still working full time and can let my full rental income take care of debt since my wife and I make good incomes ourselves.  

You can try MyInvestorLoan.com, they usually don’t care if a property has a seller carry portion of financing in 2nd position. 

And of course, most homes have HOA's (homeowners associations) that can be $20-$250/month to pay for community maintenance, sometimes lawn care, cable/internet, amenity upkeep, pool, security etc. 

Scaling your real estate investments requires careful planning and a strong foundation.
