Highly recommend them both if in the Inland Empire of California.

Could be a business decision based on keeping long-term high quality tenants rather than risk the costs on turnover.

Back when I started selling foreclosures, the REO (real estate owned) inventory was crazy high.

I'm okay with a high interest rate up to 15% because I can still breakeven on the mortgage but not sure how to finance this deal without losing my initial payments

Here's some basic copy & paste info that may help you make better investing decisions:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.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.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Trash seems high.
