By letting the tenant know that while you hate what happened to her and the position it has put her in, you are not the right vehicle/organization to subsidize her. 

@Xavier PereraAt 21 and making $180K a year, you’re in an incredible position to transition into full-time real estate investing.

I would appreciate any positive or negative comments on your experience with this investment opportunity. 

I could tell you to invest in Milwaukee, you can still find cash flow positive duplexes here in good neighborhoods around 350k and we have had very consistent 8% appreciation over the last years.

@Gil CanfuWith a $300k price range, you're definitely in a good position to find some solid investment opportunities in the North Texas market.

It's inspiring to see how overlooked opportunities can yield such positive results.

There's no way I can keep the house above water with that rent let alone consider any positive cash flow...so I need them out!

South End is great for appreciation-driven investors who want to be close to the action.NoDa (North Davidson): The artsy vibe and walkability have made NoDa a magnet for young professionals, driving appreciation in this district.Kannapolis: Known for ongoing revitalization projects, Kannapolis is positioned for appreciation.

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.

The other positive, at least for apartments.com is if they fill out an application it's good for any other unit on the site for 30 days without having to pay the fee again.Not that it matters for the law but another thing we do for tenants after they are selected is do a gift basket that exceeds that in which they paid in application fees.
