Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.PM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

I am hoping this number is extremely conservative given that our contractors, inspector, and realtor walked it as well. 

If you're scaling your rental portfolio, you have to scale your operations as well.Having said that, I have friends who only have single family MTR homes and do extremely well at scale.

I was extremely humbled by people and their excuses when it comes to paying rent on time.

Got paid for it and really enjoyed it, but that same amount of effort if done for us would have taken us to some really lofty levels.My friend is extremely happy.  

Is the property under a high tension power line or down wind from the horse rendering factory or on a main thoroughfare or some other obstruction that you wouldn't want to live near?

It gives you the power of a professional real estate bookkeeper but it's simple enough for someone who is not a fan of bookkeeping to stay on top of things because the User Experience is well thought out.

You and the other posters here have been generous in indulging me in this exercise of considering this "partnership" / BRRRR, but demonstrating that we can invest successfully on our own power before seeking out partners is not only my strong preference but just sound business logic.As a new investor my head starts to spin when I start to think about investing, and the many gaps in my knowledge reveal themselves: how to structure a partnership? 

I've argued for this and the powers-that-be do have a good argument that they are still active just in other ways, how to cover labor and actions during that, etc..

Ideally LADWP will prioritize the infrastructure repairs and new service requests to these properties as getting power service in LA can be 6-24 months without project prioritization.
