These funds typically come from dormant accounts, uncashed checks, forgotten bank accounts, and other financial assets that have been abandoned by their owners.

That's if you wanted to buy land and build them within that timeframe you are permitted to as long as you can close within 180 days. these are 3 story walk up triplexes urban infill with tax abatements. we have 8 approved so far. you could also look at land plays to grow. i don't know how much you are receiving from proceeds but I could do a few financial models to show you.

Lots of older houses but there seem to be several that have the potential for cash flow and while not exactly modern on the outside, have been renovated inside. 

So, if you fail to apply the correct assumptions to a property, your expectations won’t be met and it may even be a financial disaster.We use the following to rank Property Classes, in order of importance:Property Tenant Pool: closely linked to location, but not always.Property Location: closely linked to tenant pool, but not always.Property Condition & Amenities: it’s important to, “Maintain to the Neighborhood.”Key metrics for each Property Class:Class A Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 680+, no convictions/evictions in last 7 years.

You want to have your financial house in order so you know what you CAN afford and what you SHOULD spend.

So as long as someone gets realistic with the TRUE cost to  own and maintain and the numbers work it can work but I am a big proponent if your going to have these types of assets they need to be paid for to really enjoy any financial benefit.lastly I can say the same thing about new builds.. over the long haul unless there is REAL appreciation more than just 2 or 3% if you sell within say 10 years your going to be lucky to break even as your going to have to spend 20 to 30k making the houses fresh again to get top dollar a 10 year old rental is not going to bring top dollar and the value at that point will only be what an investors will pay for a given cash flow..

@Ming HuangRecommend 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?
