USB/USB-C outlets — great idea.Tenants absolutely notice these, especially near the bed and kitchen.

Too many newbies focus on hype not facts:(New client that just bought 3 Class C-minus properties in Detroit. 

One of my early mentors said to me "the three most important things in lending are ability, ability, and ability" (so, basically "capacity" in "the three c's of lending".

On the flip side I have a C class property that is $3000 to $5000 every time someone moves as these people are low class and always mess up walls, you also cant lease the low class units until they are actually vacant as never know if the people will actually vacate on time. 

Your vision for how you will do the rehab for project A will be different from that of B and C.

When my clients are looking to wholesale and are struggling to find end buyers (Party C), I always tell them that their best resources will be Facebook Groups(which you mentioned), LinkedIn, and local REIAs.The key is to build and maintain long-lasting relationships with both avid rehabbers and renters, as they are both viable end buyers.

I’m staying active but stricter: tighten the buy box to durable B/C neighborhoods, underwrite to in-place income first, and only chase value I can control like better management, lease-ups, and light turns.

Now we're seeing investors pouring money into buying Class C rentals - but, many are getting burned.In our experience & opinion, the main determinant of property Class is not location or even property condition, those are #2 and #3.

Let me reset the frame a bit because several assumptions in this thread are coming from a rental lens, and that isnot the context of my post.I’m not talking about being a landlord in C and D class rental neighborhoods.I’m not talking about Section 8.I’m not talking about $30K war zone houses where tradesmen refuse to show up.If that were my model, I would agree with almost everything that’s been said.My point was much narrower:Price point alone does not create the risk.Misaligned strategy does.A $50K house run as a rental is a completely different business model than a $50K house sold on terms to an owner occupant.

However owning rentals in a C Corp or S Corp. is generally not the best for tax considerations.
