In the end we are able to attract high quality tenants and higher rents.

If it were me I'd fix it up to rental quality, no furnishings and rent to the first qualified tenant to apply (3 x the rent gross household income, no history of court with or debt to prior landlords). 

Stop looking for "good deals,"....instead focus on buying a quality asset in a quality location.

Like there are really all of these Rockstar agents out there who have sold 1,000's of deals despite never owning not even 1 piece of real estate lol, it's laughable.I'd imagine if you took all of the Agents who own real estate and all of the Agents who do not own real estate there will be a clear and measurable difference in quality.

21213 fluctuates for asset quality. 

Market: Philly- surrounding job suburbsTypical sq footage: 1000Rehab quality- class BI have been told to expect to spend about 100k for a full gut on a property that’s about 2000 sq ft.

Oregon has the housing and has the draw for quality of life to bring in top talent that's a given..

I guess it makes sense that Multi family units will bring in less quality tenants but if you buy it in a better area and it's in better condition I guess you can still bring good enough tenants?

The owner is a master plumber and his company is licensed in all mechanicals and he has dozens of subs that do the high quality finish. 

I appreciate hearing about experiences with them specially if someone is with them for few years.Specifically - are they stable/viable  in long run- deal quality- liquidation ease ( if in funds)Thanks
