The ban in Asheville proper started in 2016 though, and we don't seem to have more affordable housing as a result.

All installation and manufacturing costs are relatively inexpensive down here. 

Still, not changing over the utilities in the winter is stupid but the PM should have checked the unit to make sure everything was set properly - heat down but not off, lights off, etc. 

As I mentioned in my post, if you don’t have a proper team in place to work on deals like this depending on this company to see you through is just smoke and mirrors.Thanks why won’t deal with them anymore.

Said tenant failed to hook up the drain line properly both times.

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.

Once you are familiar properly evaluating a deal and identifying most of the potential obstacles, it becomes fairly straightforward and your profit margins go up considerably.

In order for money to go to work it needs to be invested properly.

Keep in mind, though, if you just sell outright, you could be looking at capital gains and depreciation recapture, so it’s worth crunching the numbers with a proper tax professional (I’m not one, by the way).What do you think the rest of the community has seen happen to property values since last year, and do you believe it changes the 1031 conversation?
