They all have to follow the rules.

And the rules are quite relaxed. 

@Sharon McCants Yup around the 100-150k/unit mark can get you into a solid B area here that'll hit the 1% rule in most cases.

Apply to work for a builder/contractor.

If you require financing, you will have to apply for a DSCR loan. 

I understand home designs are pretty expensive, and cannot just be applied to any lot/existing neighborhood.

Even if the tenant can’t pay, it sets the expectation and documents the issue.Small Claims Court: If the tenant refuses to pay, you could take them to small claims court, where you can seek repayment without needing a lawyer.Security Deposit: If the tenant has a deposit, apply it toward the damages.Consider Eviction: Given the arrears and damage, eviction might be a last resort to prevent future losses.Talk with your property manager to create a plan that minimizes further risk.

So, you may want to rule that one out.My understanding of Baselane is it's an online banking platform with some cash flow features rather than a property management software.You may want to check out Buildium.

As a general rule I like to buy the worst house in an area and make it one of the best.

Well I knew I could subdivide or I knew the density bonus's applied etc etc.
