However, if you're looking for payment reliability, I'd recommend a slightly different strategy that aligns well with consistent income.Partnering with non-profit organizations that support vulnerable populations, like the Veterans Affairs or groups assisting people with developmental disabilities, could be highly beneficial.

The nicer area's you're giving up some cash flow for the consistency of the clientele and in my experience I've seen those areas appreciate better over time as well. 

I found that as well, (first search result iirc) but it turns out to be one guy trying to recruit mentees  as opposed to a group of independent investors like I understood a normal REIA to consist of which is more what I’d be looking for. 

If you know you can get 2k per month in a fixed up adu on average pull that trigger.otuerwise not sure what else you are going to put 70k into and get a consistent 2k per month return at this current market with where you are.

Building positive relationships with tenants can increase their retention and reduce turnover, promoting consistent rental income.Consider FHA loans with lower down payment requirements if you're starting with limited capital.

I am sure they will say in advance you have a 850 house and off you go.. rents in these areas are pretty consistent.  

The core 4 is David Greene’s long-distance investing strategy and consists of a realtor, contractor, property manager, and lender.

My current rent is $2300 at my apartment and I'm assuming the $2300-$2500 liability will be consistent in this property given the Purchase price, interest rate, and including rental income of $2000-$2200 of the other unit.

Other costs include $1,100 for taxes and insurance, $580 in HOA fees, and $200 for lawn care, totaling $1,880 per month.These rental properties are situated in desirable locations, and I have enjoyed consistent long-term tenancy with minimal turnover.
