The property sold successfully and exceeded our profit expectations.

Any reputable contractor has material accounts everywhere and doesn't expect to be paid for labor S/he hasn't yet performed. 

Memphis investors, is it realistic to expect deals where I can buy a SFH for $100,000, spend $40,000 on renovations, and then have it appraised for $170,000+?

People intuit tone based on their expectations.

It’s frustrating, especially considering how much we pay for Stessa Pro and expect things to work.I haven’t been able to find much information on whether REIHub syncs with AppFolio.

Section 8 tenants are really hard on your property so expect to pay more for repairs .

@Vincent DeLucia check out our website where we have the entire Metro Detroit area listed by Property Class and the 183 Detroit Neighborhoods.Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

The building stock is like all the other Chicago urban core burbs, so expect lots of 1950's and 60's construction with galvanized pipes, flat roofs, boilers and outdated electrical.

Obviously this is a very broad question, but I’m just hoping for some examples of what I could realistically be expecting after investing in rentals for around 10 years. 

I guess that means, there is healthy demand for rents in the metroplex.I am curious if there is a city or few Zip codes within Tulsa, Broken arrow, Bixby, Jenks and Owasso, that is preferred by prospective tenants ?
