If your Offer lets you "review and approve" of leases, and you feel they are not as expected and decide you can't live with the turnover right after purchase, than can discuss backing out with your agent. 

High rent growth areas are likely to achieve positive cash flow quicker than low rent growth areas.  5 years for cash flow seems reasonable in many markets.  

If one moves out you still have 3 coming in and positive cashflow. 

Then I could review the order of the work they recommend with them with the contractor I choose.

Positioned near land we own on West Concord Street, which is slated for a major development of 12 patio homes and two duplexes, this property is central to a broader strategy of enhancing value and transforming the area.

We pride ourselves in keeping the forums positive, helpful, and focused on real estate (please, no politics, religion, etc.).

Just for your own sake I would pick just a few zip codes to focus in on first and committ to reviewing/analyzing 50-75 properties on those zip codes.

One of my clients recently purchased a 4/2 single family house that was positive cash flowing, hit the 1% rule, and was able to execute a full cash out refinance so it was a clean BRRRR!

If you are ok with that, then you can peruse their site and determine how you are going to position yourself in terms of your need for their services.
