We have a great GC whom we're meeting with soon, so really appreciate that perspective, as I'd been considering doing it myself.

My husband & I really appreciated the bakery goods, not only because they were tasty but because they left the address for us so we could continue delighting in the offerings.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Maintenance and potential repairs will also require a long-term financial plan and setting aside a contingency fund for such expenses.The steady cash flow, appreciation over time, and tax benefits can make a meaningful difference to your wealth in the long term, especially with the principal paydown on the mortgage.However, if managing the property from a distance feels too burdensome, or if you’d prefer the certainty and flexibility that comes with having less debt (especially given the high mortgage rates), selling and using the $100,000 in equity to reduce your loan for your next home may be the smarter move.

These are all in residential areas.Thank you in advance and I appreciate any help I could get!

would appreciate input if you know about this app.also my tenant claims it helps build his credit, I am not sure how, but it says he will be paying there $800 monthly, while his rent is $1200

Neighborhoods in areas like Homewood and Hoover have been experiencing strong appreciation, and the rental market continues to be strong, especially with the growing number of young professionals and college students in the area.As a loan officer, I’m here to help you navigate the financing process, whether you’re looking for your first investment property or expanding your portfolio.

I have done very well with a buy and hold approach here with fantastic appreciation in this area. :) Happy Investing! 

Any opinions or suggestions are most appreciated.
