The property can only be vacant for so long without notifying insurance so when the prior tenant moved out could be impactful here.

@Augusta Owens here's some copy & paste info you won't find in a book:)-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

Your response also got me thinking about how this classification might impact the appraisal if this is not a mistake.Rick 

Show them the history of 30 year fixed mortgage rate & explain that the only reason rates got as low as they did is because the Federal Reserve started Quantitative Easing during the during the recession and then again during COVID.Here's the graph showing the impact of Quantitative Easing (QE) on interest rates.

That's significant and really impacts margins.

The dealflow from brokers is always there, but the juice vs squeeze conundrum is in full force because if you dont manage this closely, you will start soaking up tons of bandwidth and payroll with underwriting several deals for only 1 in 5-10 to actually close.

Why are the borrower being forced to lie?

Our area, Destin FL. is somewhat new for AvantStay and they have had some growing pains with their resources in this area, BUT it has not impacted our experience or their quality of service.

While they are the obvious ones, they are much less impactful to building a solid partnership.

@Martti Eckert here's the big issue that no one really talks about that you hopefully find helpful (this is copy & pasted):-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?
