The Tenant Class greatly impacts rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.Both Property Classand Tenant Class affect what type of contractors, handymen and property management companies will work on a property.If you buy & renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what Tenant Class will rent it?

Ask an attorney for the cost breakdown, factor in holding costs, assume they'll do more damage on the way out and then ask for a bit more for the headache.But again, especially with no experience with evictions and it sounding like a mess, I would be very tempted to just walk if the tenant is not going to cooperate. 

I preferred couples rather than families due to liability and damage.

Consider OT career prospects and lifestyle.

I am not sure how a showing did not uncover the attitude of these prospective tenants.

When he came to me, she was three months behind on rent, and her unauthorized dogs, cats, and roommates had caused about $4000 in damages.

@Daniel GrantzRecommend 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?

The other disappointment as a prospective investor in PPR is that his book could not be more loving of leverage and the ability to maximize returns by using OPM.

Hello Ivan,I do not work for BP, but my suggestion is that you follow the Build Your Investing Team link at the top of this page if you have not and follow each step including speaking with the prospective members of the team you want to build and with that I believe you will obtain the answers you need.

John,If you're looking for prospective tenants who may have section 8 later on let me know!
