Look for the positive in all situations. 

You can decline them off their credit, background and for not having 2 past positive references.

There are guidelines and guardrails, but a challenging deal can have positives and a golden deal can have issues below the surface.

As title says, looking for some first hand experience, positive or negative; for working with mynd.co.

That being said, it can be the most satisfying and cash-flow-positive business around. 

So some ballpark numbers if everything remain the same, ($400ishx12)x10) would be $50Kish + the downpayment I see I got some positive numbers and after they are paid in full is when I believe the cash flow will be in better shape.I am planning to have all properties for long time, so I am planning (fingers crossed) to keep my primary income (job) in order to keep buying more properties.Once again, many thanks for all your comments.

Columbus is definitely a solid area for MF and duplex properties with positive cashflow and appreciation potential.

Multiple professional references, when addressing this issue, carefully state: "the IRS position is..." - which to me indicates the same doubts that I have about the legality of the IRS position.Until the IRS is challenged in court over this position and loses, I choose to comply with their position.

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.

I've worked with New Western and it was good for the position I was in at the time.
