With a manageable purchase price and the opportunity for high-impact renovations, it fit perfectly within our investment strategy, promising a solid return.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

Even if you can find insurance now, premiums will likely remain high, and resale value could be impacted unless the wiring is updated.

Is it worth it to deliver an exceptional customer experience if 1) no one expects it and 2) it could impact profitability?

Our area, Destin FL. is somewhat new for AvantStay and they have had some growing pains with their resources in this area, BUT it has not impacted our experience or their quality of service.

I'll add a few more things that can have a huge financial impact: required reserves, LTC (loan to cost), application or other upfront fees, and prepayment penalties.As a fellow flipper, I think it's important to have reserves, but they shouldn't be required as part of your funding.

I was hoping the rate cuts in the last 12 months would have had more of an impact on mortgage rates.
