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.

For example, if paying $1500 or $2800 for a CPA who will advice and help you implement strategies that will lower your taxes by 2x or 3x that price, then that price is good.If you can understand what you are getting from paying that amount and your perceived value of the return, that will help you make the decision.

I'd strongly recommend against a single family home and only target properties with at least 2 units otherwise it'll be difficult to cashflow in this high interest rate environment unless you plan on using a large amount of liquidity in the purchase.

they DONT  these guys are trainers there is huge money in it far more than they could make actually wholesaling .. think about it the amount of properties that can be wholesaled is quite small actually very very narrow real estate nicheThe amount of dreamers who want to  make money wholesaling and then buy rentals then retire ( this is a common theme among those who start the wholesaling gig). 

Low end MFH is overpriced for the current rent amounts. 

The other thing I have learned over time is that the clearer your vision is, the easier it is to get there, so CLEARLY defining the location, type of property, purchase price, renovation amount, etc. etc., will really make a big difference.

It will also allow you to focus more of your time and resources in the actual real estate vs. raising capital which usually leads to poor real estate acquisition and operational decisions because raising capital is your full time job leaving an inadequate amount of time for the real estate.OK, chasing 32unit apartments, acquisition priced between 3.2M - 4.8M.
