Because I live in a neighborhood that has no crime but it shows up as very high crime because we had two neighbors who would call the cops over each others dogs barking so it lit it up to show it as negative…

you're going to be INvesting for the first few years... rental income from the property isn't going to start paying back what you spend in closing costs, rent ready costs, stabilization costs, down payment, etc. for several years at a minimum.hope this helps - not trying to be negative, just realistic. 

I would not go into an investment knowing it would have negative cashflow. 

Unfortunately Good Cause Eviction passed last night in the city of Rochester, NY.I want to thank Council Members Lashay Harris and Michael Patterson for doing the right thing and voting “NO” on this largely performative legislation…that will only TEMPORARILY protect a small handful of city residents living in EXTREME under market rental units…But it will have broad and adverse negative consequences for the WHOLE community.

.: Quote from @Tim Delaney: That seems odd to me assuming you aren’t in a highly negative cash flow situation.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

@Jordan Moorhead I know of many single-asset syndications as well as funds that pay distributions but have negative operational cash flow.

For me that means at least 1 good review and no negative reviews.
