Just wondering if anybody is part of a house flipping performance coaching program?

It's very easy for us to lose sight of these truths and blame performance on over-saturation and legislation.

Never heard of him.Make sure you perform proper due diligence.

But, they have ZERO liability for the performance of that tenant.Second, 97%+ have no idea on how to screen a tenant, other than income = 3x rent and a credit score.

Unfortunately, the previous owner (who was also a licensed agent) didn’t accurately represent the tenant situation.

Contractors performing structural, electrical, plumbing, or HVAC work are required to have the appropriate licenses issued by the City of Chicago.

Aaron I would not pay but if they wanted to have this added I would have a licensed electrician perform the work. 

That said, I’ve found that properties in C-class neighborhoods tend to perform best with Section 8 tenants.

That is your competition.I believe my recommendation will prove accurate.  

The return on equity is probably very low considering they are paid off so maybe explore refinancing or selling the lowest performing one(s) or your biggest headaches to reinvest in more lucrative deals.I noticed you also used a metric of number of rentals to attain your goal rather than $$$/month.
