@Albert Gallucci as many have pointed out, in the commercial space of 100+ apartment buildings and offices, property classes have some pretty decent industry standards.We started applying these to 1-4 unit properties around 10 years ago, which you can verify on our blogs, because we saw too many newbie investors not properly taking into account things like, neighborhood status, tenant pool, property condition, etc.Unfortunately, there's no industry standard for this, but you can use some basic logic to think your way through your own Classifications.

But perhaps you would be better served helping a local experienced investor find deals and ask them to show you exactly how they analyze deals, what's good vs bad, how do they finance (debt vs equity) etc etc and understand their business model that has a proven track record by providing value to them.

Did they provide another update? 

I've underwritten hundreds of deals, submitted tens of LOIs and not had a single one accepted- The BRRRRs I did do weren't true BRRRRs because of low appraisals, or not accounting for all costs properly and I ended up leaving around $10k for each one in the deal.

I also ask if they've ever been evicted, refused to pay rent, or filed for bankruptcy.Further, I ask account numbers for their checking and savings accounts, and the approximate balances in each.

They will handle the collection and distribution of payments, amortization, escrow accounts, and any tax documentation. 

They have come to me about buying the home but I have a collection account about to fall off my credit in a few months so I am not sure I would qualify (in addition to my income may not be high enough).Are there any workarounds to maybe purchasing the home?

Negotiating a lower price to account for these issues could be an option, but if they’re not flexible, it may be best to explore other opportunities.Happy to connect if you’d like to discuss further!

If we had hundreds of loans out, we’d have enough monthly income to aggregate the payments into additional loans—but we don’t.If you do this, your note will have to have a compounding clause in it, provided by your lending attorney.

@Caleb Genry I am late to the party on this, but would greatly appreciate the spreadsheet/log if you are willing to provide it.
