Last QI I used was not a great experience. 

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Let the tenant vacate, and you have one month to find a replacement before you incur any losses.

and last year's W-2.

Here's a breakdown of the situation:Current Occupancy: 80% (16/20 units occupied).Current Gross Rent Roll: $14,265/month.Market Rent Potential: $17,665/month (100% occupancy).Renovation Needs: 15 units require full renovation ($10K/unit), 4 units are 75% renovated ($2.5K/unit), totaling $160K in renovation costs.Vacancy Loss: $41,820/year in lost income due to current vacancies.Cap Rate AnalysisThe seller lists the cap rate as 9.59%, but this is based on the projected NOI of $119,858 (assuming full occupancy and market rents).

This story is happening to me right now, out of the blue last night, one of my tenants terminated her lease early.

But then again a large swath of syndicators that jumped in when they did have had major struggles to full blown liquidation and 100% capital loss's..
