@Sakib KhanRecommend 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?

Currently their are many SEC and FTC complaints against them and their will soon be a class action lawsuit. 

I am more likely to go with used kitchen appliances on a C class rental than a nice B class rental. 5.

Hey everyone, I attended some classes that turned out to be scams and watched every video online.

1) They naively expected Class A results from the Class B/C/D property they bought.2) They didn't do enough market research to even know they bought a Class B/C/D property.3) They didn't do enough due diligence on the members of their team: agent, PMC, inspector, etc.

Focus on long-term rentals in affordable markets with reliable cash flow, and steer clear of high-cost flips, lower-class properties, or overleveraging in areas that rely solely on appreciation.Good luck!

Can some of your concerns be mitigated (locally) through things like strong tenant vetting and property class selection?

I live here in Columbus, and it's very attainable to house hack a duplex for $400,000-$600,000 in an A-class neighborhood and gross $3,500-$5,000 in rent, which is why I asked.  

Underwrite to reality, not what you hope costs will be, because they aren't going back down.Post-pandemic vintage syndications:  You are mostly right, Scott, that these investors are cooked.
