All of the information is on the internet for free.

pretty warm right now, biggest problem is most of our inventory has been bought so we are waiting on more multifamilies to hit the market.

@Mattin Hosh first, most cities in Metro Detroit have some type of rental property inspection every 2-3 years.It's not really a big deal 99% of the time - especially for owners who are NOT slumlords:)Also, a quick Google search will show that several states/cities are passing/considering similar legislation.One of the biggest mistakes we see newer investors making is NOT properly understanding Neighborhood/Property/Tenant Classes and naively assuming that any rental they buy will deliver Class A results.Read our copy & paste thoughts below and DM us if you'd like to dicuss more about the Detroit market:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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 property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I like option 2 to diversify the investments in 3 smaller rental propertires, 3/2 around 1500 sqft, in good school districts which will open the biggest pool of tenants. 

One of the biggest time sucks can be finding & screening a tenant!

What’s your biggest challenge so far in analyzing those deals?

Using different colors was one of the biggest mistakes we ever made in the early days; tracking the colors even with a spreadsheet was a nightmare, as was keeping dozens of different touch up colors in the storehouse. 

What is the speed of the internet, is it hot water (international property holders), is it AC.These basic clear descriptive items are great because if the price is fair and it clearly states the benefits.

I have found things on the internet they make Kevin Bupp out as a great humanitarian and family man.
