The couple's current rent is similar to ours The sister is has no rental history due to a recent divorce.We're torn given 2 out of the 3 people have lower credit scores and it's not a family moving in.

In other words, two financing agreements "wrapped" together.But the goal here would be for the 2nd buyer to close all-cash (to skip the financing process), would that still work? 

If you’re not closing deals, it’s your fault.

Your example (and calling me a bit of an ignoramus) isn't even close.

I currently own and self-manage two STRs in Maine and should be closing on a small 'cabin campground' with 10 cabins nearby that will also be operated as STRs. 

@Damon AlbersSounds like these properties are in a class c area and your manager is not doing a good job vetting themBut this is not out of ordinary for c class rentals which is why people look at cash flow and be like wow but one $5000 bill can wipe out 4-6 months of rental income and properties never make money and rarely appreciateThis is why we do not do lower class rentals as stated cash flow vs reality are typically not close

We moved to Integrity over a year ago when the company we were with closed down.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

We pay close attention to how people move through the space, creating homes that feel effortless to live in.Outdoor Spaces That Shine: In San Diego, outdoor living is non-negotiable.

But we looked a little more closely at real estate this trip.
