Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

Yes, the 1% rule is getting harder, but hopefully rent prices will continue to increase as they have been trending.

I would tell people today that if you buy a primary residence expect to stay in that home for atleast five years, especially with a FHA loan which has lower down payment as the current forecasts for home appreciation or very low which with closing costs on the buy and sell, it will take several years to have equity in the property and enough to be able to sell, so that is something also to consider.

Their cost basis is about $33k, the agreed upon purchase price is $250K and the expected appraisal might be around $350k-$400k. 

Quote from @Jokari Trueheart: HI, almost 11 months ago I purchased 3 duplexes and I borrowed the funds from my personal residence which I took out a equity agreement for the down payment on the investment property, great idea at the time because I have 10 years to pay it off and theres no payment requirement, but , I learned more about the consequence that it takes a large chunk of my equity the longer I take to pay it back, so my goal was to refi cash out the investment property to pay it back but I don't think theres enough equity yet to pull the full $106k needed, I only borrowed $88k but with the equity percentage for one year i'm paying about $18k in equity on top of the amount I borrowed if I pay it off in year one, so I need this paid off ASAP before it increases more.

You can expect turnover costs, losses due to vacancies, and other expenses.

The problem is that your debt payments are going to basically wipe out that $400K profit unless there is room to increase revenue or reduce expenses.

@Matt Schreiber you won't find any Class A or B properties that cashflow - whether SFR or MFR.Price & interest rate increases have made it very difficult - unless you find something off-market BEFORE an agent or wholesaler finds it.

Sure it will cost a bit more but if the numbers work, the numbers work.

In the City of Austin, we saw a 6.5% increase to $575,000*Total sales increased 2.5% in the metro.
