Let's talk,DanIve actually been looking into buying a condo myself as an investment, I have a few rules, needs to be with both good hoa management & relatively cheap fee (bellow $600 a month) needs to be in area where I’m not competing against other new construction apartments, needs to be an area where even townhomes are so expensive you are not competing, I.e. upper nw, nova, Bethesda etc. needs to be 1990’s or newer in most cases.

And what is your price point and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?

@Rosette PooleRecommend 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?

Used the proceeds to complete the work on a fixer upper I negotiated for $45k.

The #1 determinant is the Tenant Pool.If you don't believe us, try putting several Class D tenants in Class A apartment buildings and watch what happens.

I live in Upper Bucks and invest in Philadelphia, Delaware, Bucks and Montgomery Counties.

I will say this, in the first pic my eyes went right to the air vent in the upper right of the pic because there was nothing else to look at.

@Matt Schreiber you won't find any Class A or B properties that cashflow - whether SFR or MFR.Price & interest rate increases have made it very difficult - unless you find something off-market BEFORE an agent or wholesaler finds it.

These are just guidelines and may need to be adjusted based on your property's location and class.
