Any information about land in reference to developing townhomes would be helpful ThanksWhen it comes to Build-to-Rent (BTR) townhome developments, which fall into the larger category of rental housing that is rapidly expanding, there are a few important considerations:Typical Density: A common density for BTR projects is around 8 dwelling units per acre.

So for example, a 761 credit score will be in the 760-779 credit category, then going down to 740-759 and so on.2.

And if you invest more than 200K you will get an extra 5% bonus at the end for a total of 23% returned in your final year.

They also did not know that their SS mangers were kiting $5K per month of rents so the rent roll made no sense and I got the bonus of the missing $$'s. 

Lastly, but not least importantly, how do you comply with requirement to write qualified loans when you are selling homes to one particular category of buyers who don't have credit history or have poor credit history?

And having a property manager does not mean that you’re not directly involved with a lot of issues with your properties.Given your situation I might rather suggest a REIT investment where you get exposure to the category, but not have to deal with such a large portfolio, or just get your feet wet and see if you like being a landlord by buying a couple of properties  Randy  

In each category, note how much you are bothered or stressed on a 1 to 5 scale, with 1 = not bothered at all and 5 = stressed out: Pain Points Stress1 to 5 Pain Points Stress1 to 5 Unit turnover Exterior maintenance Advertising for available units Deferred capital expenditures Tenant screening rules Plumbing or electrical emergencies Tenant selection / discrimination rules Mortgage payments Documenting move-in conditions Bookkeeping and bill paying Documenting ongoing conditions Taxes and insurance premiums Dealing with tenant complaints Risk of late payments or non-payments Dealing with neighbor complaints Risk of property damage or vandalism Mold, termites and rodents Premises liability Interior maintenance Evicting tenants If your completed table has mostly 1s and 2s, then congratulations—you are a happy landlord!

We've saved about $40k so far but with bonuses at the end of this year from our jobs we should be over $50k very soon.

I don't really consider appreciation as I consider it just a bonus, especially in a cashflow market.

In the class category it works to your favor the higher the risk the greater the CF.I am 58 y/o I have been in Rental Real estate Market for 7 years with the major focus on generating income for retirement.
