The best deals I find are usually the result of an agent’s lack of familiarity with the area or a very poor listing presentation.

Quote from @Michael Smythe: @Jerry NoguerasRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.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.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

As you know, I was so impressed by the quality of the offering that I decided to join as well and have been on a couple of group calls.I'm the Director of Commercial Real Estate Acquisitions for Southcorp Group in Columbus, Georgia.

They normally do a very poor job that will have to be corrected later - drips on the floor, doors walls and molding, poor job of cutting in, bleed through on the walls.

A warranty can bring peace of mind, especially if the tenant values quality and reliability.Here’s our rule of thumb:For budget-friendly rehabs: Used appliances from a reputable source can be a smart choice.

I spoke with a mortgage "quality auditor" recently who said he knocked on 600 doors last month.

Start with durable, high-quality basics: plush towels, soft linens, and a fully stocked kitchen with sharp knives, pans, and essentials like oil and spices.

The profit was used to buy a higher quality SFH in the same area.

If you hate the process of placing tenants, it may be worth it to hire a property manager to handle tenant placement for you.I think finding a new tenant is a better long term strategy if you're confident you can find a higher quality tenant that will cause you fewer headaches.

So you can scale that if you want.FHA is for people with poor credit and very little down payment.
