Also, consider this copy & paste advice below:Recommend 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 Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

This is less of an issue here that what you all are describing.  

this deal seems like a lot of risk and I am interested to seeing how it turned out.The tenants were a few weeks away from the foreclosure auction.

Creators are selling contents and we are selling time of the space.
