Best to buy 2-4 unit, live in one, rent the rest.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.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

Hey @Adam Hoeker some my clients use QuickBooks, and it is definitely a great and industry standard accounting tool.

No tenant-made upgrades allowed, unless they're professional quality.

Section 8 can provide a steady and reliable source of income from government-backed rent payments, but with that said, make sure to do your research on the local market to ensure demand, and be prepared to meet the property standards required by the program.

I do the standard buy and hold but the property has to be bought at a discount - 85% of ARV is my maximum - including purchase price and rehab.

You can also use a standard board of realtor lease template.
