I recently watched a video on social media that mentioned the way he was buying properties and yielding the benefit of the sellers low interest rate is having the seller put the property in a trust and then purchasing the trust.

The study could also identify the opportunity to capture additional benefits such as dispositions, and repair and maintenance expenditures.

@Zach Howard some copy & paste advice below:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

And as I explained earlier, your investment is protected by real property, so your risk is extremely low. 

If you are going into MF make sure you have a lot of cash sitting on the sidelines for maintenance and repairs.

I'm not too familiar with the markets yet but research I've done suggests that the towns of New Britain, New Haven and Hartford all have a good mix of inventory and low prices coupled with plenty of amenities, night life, cafes, etc and local colleges to bring younger people to the area year after year.

A good manager will handle everything from marketing to maintenance and tenant screening, saving you time and stress.Vendors and LandscapingBuilding a team of dependable vendors—like landscaping companies, contractors, and insurance agents—is critical.

Your maintenance budget should be 10% * $24,000 = $2,400 Make the tenant happy!

Most people I know start with low money down programs so they can get away with a initial capital investment of around $25k but you also need reserves.  

My low months were 50-65% occupancy and 100% for summer.
