@Hiyun Park only experienced investors can DIY everything in Class C Midwest areas like Detroit, Cleveland, St Louis, etc.Hopefully the info below will help you:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

Figure out what your property taxes will be at the new sales price.

This figure is for C class properties.

I’ve hit a challenge in shifting my mindset and would like to ask the group - if I’m not an extrovert with a sales background and the cushion of a 6-figure corporate job, will I be able to succeed at REI?  

I would review your process with how these investments are going so far and figure out what's working and what's not.

You may not need to visit each property you buy in that area though.4) Unless you are buying Class A turnkey, you should have a PMC.5) See below copy & paste info:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

You can tinker with all sort of pricing strategies on the platform, but the key is figuring out your base price, which they help with as well.
