The properties that I like the best are typically in the B/B- neighborhoods.

Tenants may not occupy residence without utility service except during brief interruptions beyond your control.

I talked to a modular home company in my area, and he said to build a 4 / 2.5 2200 square foot home would be 215k, and then foundation and utilities would be another 160k.

Sub to deals are risky for the buyer and typically provide little to no value for the seller. 

This seasonal slowdown is typically predictable and manageable.But at the end of 2024, we saw that increase jump to over 10 days, pushing average DOM from 25-30 to over 40.

In these instances typically the lender will pay it to protect their interests. 

It's been great - the property is 100% paid off and the house is worth 300-340k generating approx $2300/mo (that's after utilities/management fees etc.)I'm considering selling the property to buy 3 more within the same price range in the same market. 

Hi Gavin,This is fairly common, and it’s great that you’re thinking ahead about how to handle utilities responsibly.

@Adam OrtizRecommend 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?

Perhaps do a case study with a hypothetical deal you think is typical for what you are looking at and compare it to the alternative investments you might use and their expected returns.
