In the first example, the asset may be priced at a 10 cap but the tenant has a high risk of going out of business before the end of their 10 year lease term so after year two, they file bankruptcy and the owner is left with a negative return as they are funding all expenses themselves and paying to re-tenant the building.

Do that with a SFH and you are probably cash flow negative when you leave and your peace of mind goes away when you have a vacancy!!!!!  

Could be that most landlords have a negative experience because the local housing authority is very anti-landlord. 

It's all competition now, so you'll have to be the best at pricing, amenities, and unique aspects of the property to stand out.It can be done since most hosts suck ***.We invest in the Hudson Valley. 

It’s negative cash flowing to begin with, and you will likely have to rehab it to some degree if you put renters into it.  

I like the out of the box type thinking, but I am not sure I would use it and how many people would versus the risk and maintenance aspect. 

There are many aspects to real estate investing, which aspects interest you? 

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560, little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

I have some rentals and understand that aspect of real estate but would like to have a better understanding of wholesaling before I jump in.Thanks

If financed at high LTV, there will be negative initial cash flow.
