If you flip your flooring upgrades and appliances will probably need to be of higher quality vs a rental.

You get so much wealth and start getting older you enjoy the business but focus on quality of life more and memories. 

@Marc ShinLike @Andrew Steffens said, for big items, go with quality.

Strong property management and careful tenant placement also play a critical role in success here, so I recommend partnering with a turnkey company or an agent who specializes in these areas to make the process smoother.As for rental demand, homes that sit for extended periods are often the result of issues like pricing, condition, or tenant quality—not necessarily a reflection of the market as a whole.

Signs of this are poor lease quality, maybe M2M tenants, high expenses (unnecessary things like high trash bills, internet, cleaning, security).

Sponsor quality far surpasses the "deal", assuming a qualifying criteria for a "good sponsor" is that they don't buy crappy real estate deals to begin with.Having said that, if a great sponsor is offering a deal you don't like for some reason, don't invest in it--just wait for the next one.

I find pricing tools lumping me in with all 2/2 regardless of quality of finishes and location (I’m beachfront others are not).

Even if your transfer goes through, it sounds like the regular servicing we'll be the same quality as you're experiencing now.We transferred two loans to Del Toro.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?
