@Carini Rochester I agree with Greg but to be clear Good Cause does not require a landlord to provide free housing, it just forces them go through the onerous and expensive and lengthy process of actually going for non payment eviction instead of a hold over proceeding, when the landlord knows that a monetary judgement is worthless and just wants possession of their rental unit back so they can fix it back up and rent it again hopefully to a great tenant.Also the problem with all this is that from 2019 to now, landlords have gotten used to having economically or physically vacant units and have priced that risk in. 

Here’s what I’ve seen work well:Furniture Purchase:If the furniture fits the vibe you’re going for and is in good shape, buying it can definitely help you hit the ground running.

Knowledge is power:Thorough Inspections: Minimize surprises with detailed inspections and due diligence.Strong Screening: Careful tenant selection reduces vacancy and headaches.Diversification: Spread your investments across different locations and property types to mitigate risk.Financial Planning: Maintain a buffer and choose financing options that fit your long-term goals.

That seems to be extremely unique in today's environment.But if you're looking for more tenant stability, some of the options you listed might be a better fit. and don't see it talked about a ton here (that may be a good thing)

And then add a caveat, one you were genuinely contemplating or actually did list for sale within the first 6 years and it didn't sell for whatever reason and fit in the time frames listed above?

I would just stick to your systems and processes and if the fits not there so be it.

If you are going to invest in class C I strongly recommend you physically go visit the property and the area with your own two eyes.

I just don't want to commit and sign up for his classes before I try it and see it as a good fit for me.   

Study all strategies, markets, etc, and find what fits your strategies.

This does not mean you add something that is a luxury in a market that it does not fit.
