@Jay Fayz for SFR (1-4 family) Classifications are mostly opinion-based.Not aware of anyone tracking eviction rates, except Evictions Lab nonprofit that doesn't like landlords.Here's some info that might helpt:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

Obviously there is risk involved (as with anything).

Would love to get more involved in investing in the great state of SC.

@James JeffersonHi James,To buy out the property you need to probably apply for a loan through any lender.  

What goes into proving that it is over 60% and when do you do it (before submitting for a permit or when you apply)?   

Companies that know what they're doing don't get involved with the race to the bottom. 

If so, would a different (smaller) ratio apply to how many units a certain population should have?

I've seen buyers leave $500k on the table and tell their friends they got a good deal by not having an agent involved. 

I'm at a stage where I really just want to get involved and start buying properties.

Much like by the end of this decade, I will take those same steps to become even less involved with work and have more times with my kids who will be really developing and that will be my focus.The difference once I made money, and was able to make it make money for me I de-risked by eliminating leverage.
