@Bryce MosierRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

My assumption is that the asking price already contains a $5-10K "finders fee".  

Any cost analysis is only as good as the numbers you start with and the assumptions made about future events.

It depends on how much tax you owe, your assumptions about DST total returns and your assumptions on how much you can earn away for the DST market after you cash out. 

So, I am going to make a few assumptions that could be wrong.  

But there is SO much going on right now, and with so many variables changing in ways that are really all over the board, it's really hard to make the same assumptions that we've been able to make in the past 5-10 years. 

I am only talking about in phases, which again is just an assumption that’s how you work on a bigger rehab.

This seems like assumptions that are simply not feasible.
