Not one single strategy will work for every property. 

One month of vacancy will cost you $2,600 + $200 utilities.

HOA will eat up a lot of your money. 

Once they have seen the property and are interested, the prequalification and background checks will do the rest of the work in weeding out undesirable tenants for you. 

Thanks in advance—your experiences will help narrow down the best fit!

And, if it comes out that you stood by and let the clock run on mesne profits just to set up the former owner for large damages, a judge will not give them to you.

They develop, they build, they finance, they property manage, they will have HAO, cleaning crew etc. etc. etc. so the subsidiary companies make money every step of the way.From investor perspective: The investor pay $15 K to reserve the right to purchase 25 multiplex over the year of next 5 years. 5 each year.

We notify 2 units at a time, 60 days before expiration, that their rent will be raising.

That’s a great move—starting early with analyzing deals will put you in a strong position when you're ready to buy.Since you're open to other markets in the Southeast, I’d definitely recommend taking a look at Chattanooga.

Yelp reviews do not look promising, but unsure what 11 reviews in total really mean haha.Thanks for any reviews/experiences people will share.
